Trip to Mozambique

I had to make a trip to Mozambique for 2 days to attend to some official matters... Was kinda pissed off as I had to make the trip on Caroline's birthday.. so, we decided to celebrate her day earlier... She was very understanding, which made me feel even worse to be away from her on her big day... Will make it up to her one day....

Anyway, back to the trip to Mozambique, it was a pretty ok trip.. nothing to strenuous... here are some pics taken..

Should have stayed here - Polana Serena Hotel.
Cheaper as well, and with better views of the Indian Ocean
