Zeb the Duck and Mom Explore Maputo Bay Coastline

Today we will see if Mom can lead us through Maputo.   Isaac is no longer with us.   First, a taxi to Hotel Terminus to sign up for a tour to Swaziland.   Now Mom thinks we can walk along the coast of Maputo Bay and find someplace, with a water view, for lunch.   We love seeing these ships on Maputo Bay.

We stop here and admire the view above Maputo Bay.

Beautiful spot to look out to sea.

Isn’t this beautiful.   We love to just sit and watch the water.   This bird seems to also enjoy watching the water.

I believe he has the best seat on the coastline.   Small boats are used by fisherman.

Being in a small boat is my idea of a perfect day.   This is a really old, original waterfront building in Maputo.

A great thatched roof.  I, Zeb the Duck, am sitting on the ground by the giraffe.   Continuing along the coastline, this pier calls us.

Let's walk on the pier

Let’s go, Mom.   The end of the pier consists of rocks.

Very interesting to this duck.   Looking back, we gaze at the waterfront hotels.

Now I see another boat with more fishermen.

This is a little different from what we usually see here.   We walk to the Southern Sun Resort.   Looks like a good place for lunch, I think.     I, Zeb the Duck, have never seen a sandwich with so much inside and even bacon on top of the sandwich.

Love the basket for French Fries. First time with bacon on top of sandwich

During lunch, I really enjoy the view of Maputo Bay.

Great view for lunch

I have been watching this fisherman gathering and moving his nets.

This is a very nice pool, but mom says we cannot swim in it because we are not staying here.

That is fine with me.   I want to watch the water.   We stroll along the sand for awhile.   Mom says it is time to go back to our hotel, but we don’t want to walk back.   Our lunch and earlier walk seem to make us have less energy.   This man drove us back to our hotel.

He brought us back to our hotel.

He was very nice.   While in Maputo we have talked to so many very nice people.   We are glad we decided to visit Maputo, Mozambique.
