Day 14,18 July 2012, Kande Beach to Chitimba Beach, Malawi - 250 kms and a mere 4-5 hours on the roads. Heaven. We are sad to be leaving beautiful Kande Beach as we did not manage to dive! It is, apparently, the windy season and all day yesterday it was blowing wild on-shore gales (and this morning too). There was no chance to get the boat into the surf (on a lake remember) without it flipping and potentially losing divers to the strong currents. C'est la vie does not begin to describe the disappointment of missing fresh water diving. But onwards - The day is an easy one by truck standards and we will spend tonight at Chitimba Beach before crossing the border to Tanzania tomorrow. As an aside, for those who have visited a Hard Rock Cafe somewhere in the world, we have done something a little different and enjoyed ourselves at Kande's Soft Sand Cafe - lounging around on a battered red plush velvet lounge, eating freshly washed, cut, cooked potato chips and finishing off with a massive slice of chocolate cake still warm from the oven. So fresh from the oven, we didn't give them a chance to ice it!
