Mfuwe to Lusaka: First internal flight

Posted by daveb on August 12th, 2008

To travel from Mfuwe, near South Luangwa National Park, to the Zambian capital of Lusaka meant spending another 4.5 hours at 15mph to get back to Chipata and then face another seven hours on a bus on road probably not that much better.

Or we could just get a one hour flight, from Mfuwe to Lusaka.

Guess which option we took?

This was our first internal flight and we were both really excited. The plane was titchy, albeit not as small as I had hoped. Even though the flight was only one hour in duration, our host still managed to squeeze in an in-flight meal consisting of a cheese cob and a mango juice drink. Bliss. He started to pour a coffee at one point and I got excited. Although it turns out that hot drinks were reserved for the pilots, presumably to help them read their newspapers at 24,000 feet…

Hello Dave and Claire! This is Nate; that American guy from Mdokera’s Amazing Malawian Bed-In-A-Tree. I just though I would write to say hello, and that I’ve just posted several (hundred) photos of my trip, a few of which you might recognize, and two of which feature Dave. Should you be around quick internet in the near (or distant) future, they can be found at http://www.natelaffan.com. Just click the black 24th up in the corner. Cheers – Nate

@Nate:

Hello and thanks! We’ve at last found reasonably fast Internet and so will take a look right away. Presume that you made it back home in one piece?

Write more, thats all I have to say. Literally, it seems as though you relied
on the video to make your point. You definitely know what youre talking
about, why throw away your intelligence on just posting videos to your weblog when you could be giving us something informative to read?
