Going to Nacala

Every once in awhile we REALLY need to get away, and the easiest getaway for us is in Nacala, a port town just 2 1/2 hours east of us. We went off 2 weeks ago and enjoyed two nights and 1 1/2 days there (way too short) visiting friends and snorkeling off the beach. Toby made his snorkeling debut, after months of paddling around with his mask and fins. He put on his mask and snorkel, inflatable armbands to make it easier, and his fins, and off we went around the bits of reef. We were more than 30 feet offshore, and he did fantastic! He was excited to see a lionfish, clownfish, puffer fish, cowfish, sardines leaping out of the water (and whacking him in the head!), and about 10 other types of tropical fish. Plus anemones, an eel and various kinds of coral. He is one lucky kid, and adventurous too. He was totally hooked, and dad and mom took turns taking him out. He can't wait for our next trip out to the coast. - Cami
