Down to Blantyre

We got up early for a bus to Blantyre. The bus station had a great atmosphere because it was so busy. We were lucky to get our own seats as many had to stand. There were lots of cute kids on with us, and near the end, a chicken! The view was incredible all the way and made us forget how tired we were. Half way through the journey we pulled over for what we thought was no reason, however, we got to see the presidents convoy of cars drive past. In Malawi it is an act of respect to do this. Throughout the journey we stopped at various villages where the locals would sell us things through the bus window. We arrived in Blantyre late afternoon and found our hostel for the week. In evening we relaxed, played pool and planned the trainings for the next day.
