Maputo - Day 3

Well, there are a couple of things I forgot to mention about Maputo. The first is that, to my complete surprise, this country drives on the left! Another thing is that the seafood here was always very famous and last night the "experts" group went out to a restaurant for dinner and found avery reasonable place on the top of the large shopping centre just around the corner from our hotel. No lobsters last night but the chillie prawns and prawn curry were very good.

The pictutre is (l-r) my colleagues Shaun Guy Jean-Louis Petitclerc and Zwhang Jing and me sitting at dinner in the Big Blue seafood restaurant. This is in the shopping centre just around the corner from the hotel.


The Hotel Tivoli is (http://www.tivoli.odline.com/default.jsp?idVersao=2) 3 star place in an area about 10 minutes cab drive from the real centre of town. Basic but fine. Our meeting wit representatives from 14 African countries is being held here so we do not get out much. The view from my room is dominated by the old library as I said.
This place is being renovated by the look of the work going on.
