The apartment in Li'l Baghdad

Okay, for those of you who have seen the city of Maputo, in Mozambique, you know it looks rough. After the war it was kinda debated whose responsibility it was to take care of the outside of things. It's obvious that the inside of a building is the owners responsibility, but the outside...
As a result many people live in beautiful apartments with sketchy exteriors. It has also resulted in the affectionate nick-name "Little Baghdad." (but it's getting better.) Just had to explain that so you would understand where I was going with this.
So here is a summery of my trip in Moz. It's not quite the house that jack built, but...

These are the apartments in Lil' Baghdad.


This is the wonderful couple who hosted (tolerated) us in the apartment in Lil' Baghdad.




These are the friends who stayed with the couple who hosted us in the apartment in Lil' Baghdad.


This is the carepoint, visited by the friends who stayed with the couple who hosted us in the apartment in Lil' Baghdad.


And this is me. Very happy and rested at the beach, after visiting the carepoint, with the friends who stayed with the couple, who hosted us, in the apartment in Lil' Baghdad.
