Mts. Nairuco

This past weekend we got together with some of our team members who also live in Nampula. We went to a place called 'Montes Nairuco' that is about a half hour away from the city. It is a beautiful place that has camping options and little shelters with nearby grills. It was SO great to get away from the city for a bit and it was particularly nice to enjoy the outdoors on a cool day (as we are in the middle of our 'winter' here in Mozambique).




Christian decided that one of the guys was going to be his new friend.


He pretty much spent the afternoon with him. The poor guy didn't have much choice. Christian is quite loyal if he recieves any sort of positive affirmation.
Cohen and his friend spent much of the afternoon "fishing". I say "fishing" (in quotes) because all the bigger kids had the real fishing poles with fishing line and hooks, leaving Cohen and his friend a makeshift stick with a string and a wight on it.


However, they had a GREAT time pulling up all sorts of scum and plants and trash from the pond and exulted triumphantly over each and every catch.
