The girls did not like it at first. They hid between the trucks until it was time to go into the church. |
The adult gathered outside the church. |
Just a few of the children |
The little church and the over flow area outside. |
Already the ladies have started working on our lunch. |
We gathered inside of the church. To give you an idea of the size of the building, I am sitting with my back against the front wall looking into the congregation. |
Lee talking with a gentleman that we got to know while we was in Quelimane for a few days. |
I am putting sunscreen on the girls and the children gathered around to watch. |
And we are off! |
Lilly, Sally, and Meghan (I'm not sure what Lilly is pointing at) |
Just beyond the edge of the village it opens up to this..... the remains of a coconut orchard. The trees in this area have gotten a disease and are dying. |
We went through this old Portuguese settlement....really cool! It is totally in the middle of no-where! |
Getting closer! We are walking in lines because this is like a dirt road that is not traveled much and grade is growing in the middle. The beach is just through those trees up ahead. |
The journey to the beach took us about 20 minutes on foot. I wanted to stop all along the way and take it all in. It is so different, yet so much the same as the Carolinas. Beautiful.....
