DAY 44 - Kidnapped Day

Yes, today i was kidnapped!

He told me in the morning that we are going out for lunch in a place far far away for a short road trip. As usual i just have time to grab our identical  tiny bags and one of it contains our usual picnic essentials which includes our bathing suits and two towels, first aid kit and a sun block and the other one is where we put all our cameras in. So off we went with our sun hat and all to a place called "Barra do Cuanza" about 70km south of Angola. And hubby said we are going to have our lunch in a restaurant that he use to go with his friends before i arrived in Angola and the place is called "Kwanza Lodge"

Photos of people of Angola all the way on our road trip

Ahh..i love this! Its a school of baobarb trees :)

The trip wont be complete if we didnt make a stop at  the "mirador"
It's my second time visiting this manifique Landscape

"The  the Mirador"

Thepreture check and it was just 31°C..phew..not to bad indeed :)

Finally we arrived at  "Kwanza Lodge" just before midday.
In other words, just in time for lunch :)

Happy faces  all around :)

Our appertiser compliments from the Lodge

The scenery around the Lodge

The jetty, the banggalows facing the river and around the back are some other banggalows thats facing the beach side. What so wonderful about this place is that, you can enjoy the river and the beach side because the lodge is located at the mouth of the River. They have river cruise and deep sea fishing all at one place.
very greeny and beautiful and most of all very tranquil indeed :)

We had a wonderful time soaking in the river water the water was not so warm but after a while it was ok :)

 

And of course curious Samson dont want to miss on the fun too :) he is having a jolly good time soaking in the water too :)

 

Hanging out on our river-front balcony while eating "kacang" and drinking our coffee and reading a book  and not forgetting also watching Samson swimming with his mama + papa in the river :)
Had a wonderful day and it was time to enjoy the sunset and the wonderful dinner buffet at the Lodge restaurant :)

And the morning came and we were woken up by loud thunder noise and RAIN!

One last snap before we hit the road :)
