Last Sunday ...

… we hired a boat, together some friends, to reach Ilha dos Portogueses and Ilha de Inhaca (to have an idea of what I'm talking about, just look here or here !), a couple of beautiful islands at the end of Maputo Bay.

It has been a very nice day trip, with lovely friends !
We were lucky to see in the distance, while approaching Ilha dos Portogueses, some dolphins and a WHALE !!!! But I don't have any picture of them, as they were a little bit distant from us!!!

We had lunch on Ilha dos Portogueses, that is even a natural reserve and you have to pay tickets once you land on the beach.

Quiet and wonderful, as we wished for !!!

I'm sharing some pictures with you …

Beauty is where you find it : February 2015, ESCAPE DAILY ROUTINE !

Saturday 14 February we decided to have a day out at Macaneta (our beach gateway!) and I decided to take some random pictures ( on the ferry to the beach ) with my smartphone, without thinking about the composition of each photo… I was just clicking and clicking !!!!

Maybe some good shoot was taken (even a silly one with me in a hat and a stamp of Matteo…. how it happened is still a mystery to me !!!!) ….













You can find more beautiful pictures over HERE, at luzia pimpinella !!!!

Kruger National Park : day 3, last one !

So, next morning we left Berg-en-Dal Camp Site to go back home in Maputo and it was a short ride to reach the main gate of the park, but we had the opportunity to watch some buffalos …





… and find out a pack of Wild Dogs, resting under a tree …
Do you see the tip of a tail?











… and two last photos taken by Tobia : a crocodile and some hippos …




…. soon, we'll be back there !!!! YES!!!
