Scotty banged on my door & I debated whether it was possible to move or not. I managed to get out of bed & join them for some breakfast. The full English seemed the best way to start the day off, with a steaming pot of coffee. Don & Scotty both managed early morning whiskeys, a bold start to the day.
At 10:30 we had arranged to go on a boat trip out on the Lake. The boat didn't fill me with my confidence but I'd did appear to float & we had some back up fuel. No life vests though. Still when in Rome!
The first part of the journey had some reasonable sized waves at which stage I began to wonder whether a full English had been a good option. Don wasn't loving being rocked about, but daddy cool Scotty was laying back & chilling out. Our first stop was to feed the Fish Eagles. This is the national bird of Malawi & we got some good photos & a video of them coming into feed. Don bravely had volunteered to take her phone on the trip. Rather her than me. Next up was the cliff jumping that I was actually looking forward too. However safety Hansell took over & I refused to climb the treacherous rocks. Not at all health and safety approved. The fact that Scotty managed in on his crutch should not be given too much consideration. Through crazy acts like that he is likely to get injured more. Don also did it but hey swiftly moving on to the snorkelling. Battling a strong current there were still plenty of fish to see & it was great fun. The clouds meaning you weren't too hot, & could enjoy yourself. I briefly popped along to the next beach to see where one of the rivers came into the Lake. Then we gave John & Mary (Fish Eagles) some more food then docked back on shore.
The rest of the day didn't quite match the early activity levels. But that's what the point of the break was about. We stayed in the bar for lunch then headed back to sit out the front of the villa for a while. I believe Don took a nap.
At dinner there was no Butterfish so I opted for the Campango burger. Not many places do a good fish burger but this one did. Are attempts at pool were scuppered tonight when we would we had to pay for the pool separately & as we had no money on us at the time we gave up on that idea too. I suggested going down to the beach bar to watch the Leicester champions league game. Scotty & Don accommodated graciously. Though the stairs proved to be too much for Scotty & he injured his leg further making it across he beach. To make matters worse the game was on but they were not serving drinks any longer.
This prompted is to head back to the room at half time for a night cap.
