HAPPY BIRTHDAY MUM!!!! Hope you have a fantastic day. Sending you a big kiss and cuddle all the way from Africa. miss you so so much and love you millions (going to have a few drinks for you tonight!!!)

Hope everyones ok and not missing me too much!! Im Still d d d d der.... loving it! Well if you'd have asked me a few days ago it wouldnt have been the case! We spent almost 2 n half days travelling from dar es salam (or whatever its called) Malawi. On the way we camped at this gorgeous little place in the middle of no where. An English women owned it and cooked us all a roast beef dinner...MMMMMMMMMM! Tell you what mum, you've got a bit of competition there infact think it wa better than yours!! We all sat round a camp fire and finished off with hot chocolate and toasted marsh mellows! then a massive spider came so i nearly started crying and went to bed.

The next night was a different story, we stayed at this s***e place with no electricity, showers etc, and the toilet was a hole in the ground..... lovely! The local kids cheered us up though as we wa all playing footie with them on the beach. Although it was a boring night for us with nothing to do, im sure we had made their day, bless them!

Right now were at lake malawi (a massive fresh water lake that just looks like the sea) I really like it here, there's loads of other tours like us here and cool little beach bars and resturants. Weve upgraded again too cos cant be arsed with camping for the next few days. Tonight were going to the village as think the locals are cooking for us (so if you never here from me again thats why!!) All the people are so friendly in malawi, its lovely! Although y'day one local lad wa a bit too friendly and gave me a free bracelet. Then he said "tonight, if you meet me at beach later, i give you free necklace too" I was like... No thanks love!!

Ive just handed my washing in to a local women who's hand washing it all for me for about a quid, think she though i wa a bit cheeky though when i asked her if she'd iron them for that too!! (dont think they even have irons in this country!!)

Right im off now to do what i do best...... EAT! The food is lovely that they cook us, im going to have start watching the weight though. Although its all really healthy, i have 2nd n 3rd helpings! Its ace though, if we want any fruit, you just climp a mango or banana tree and pick them!

Love to you all, big hugs

Moi
