New Years eve booked


New years eve is booked


We will go to Mumbo Island
for a few days


Accommodation in luxurious safari tents
Kayak and snorkeling 
Guided hikes and sunset cruise



They told me
the whole camp is built of timber, thatch and canvas
blending with the African bush
to create a ‘Robinson Crusoe’ atmosphere of rustic charm



I have learned that
Mumbo Island is a pristine and deserted tropical island floating on the Lake Malawi


With a maze of massive underwater boulders, innumerable species of colourful cichlid fish
and calm, clear water, the National Park offers what many consider the best freshwater
snorkeling and SCUBA diving
in the world


What a wonderful start
of the the New Year


Lake Malawi is unique and forms a separate bio-geographical province
It is estimated to be between three and twenty million years old
The lake is 600km long, 80km wide and over 700m deep and is the southern extremity of the
 African Rift Valley


I am exited to celebrate New Year in Paradise
No electricity on the island
My 18 year old son is also looking forward to it
I see it as a gift when a 18 year old is looking forward to spend
new year with his parents


I wish you a wonderful new week!
