from 2019/02/11 to 2019/02/14
Ngala Beach Resort
Monday, February 11 was a long
morning drive to Ngala Beach Resort, a beautiful sandy beach where I
spent four days daydreaming watching the fishermen hauling their large
net filled with small fish. On Monday afternoon a heavy truckload with
Dutch tourists got bogged down; after rocking under the twin rear wheels
the clumsy driver managed to extract it by placing it in front of my
truck obstructing my view. Of course I could not let this situation
last. I vehemently informed the manager by ordering him to evacuate it.
To succeed I invoked the principle, First come, First serve and the
mention of the incident on the site iOverlander. After an hour the
driver moved his vehicle. I received the apology from the manager; the
incident was closed. During my stay I was lucky to have a sunny day
without a drop of rain.

from Ngala Beach to Mzuzu
from 2019/02/15 to 2019/02/16
Mzuzu, Macondo Camp
Friday, February 15 the road from Ngala Beach Resort to Mzuzu Macondo
Camp keeps along the lake Malawi at 480 meters of altitude before
forking westwards to climb at 1336 meters of altitude during the last
25 kilometers. Mzuzu is the third city of Malawi which is a stop & go
for travellers with two supermarkets for the supply in food before
visiting Nyika National Park then entering Tanzania. Due to the
altitude, 2300 meters, of Chelinda Campground in the park I remained two
days here for my cardiac acclimatization.
