Thunder Horse, the movie

From Gorongrosa we headed up to Quelimane, which involved crossing the Zambezi via ferry. Quite an experience, and done on what could only be described as african time. About 30kms outside of town the exhaust broke in half giving the cruiser an even more impressively thunderous roar! We only managed to reach Quelimane at around 9pm, and with no backpackers around, we decided to drive another town, Zalala Beach, which was about 30km up the coast and more importantly had a campsite.

What the map didn't indicate was that Zalala beach was the perfect setting for a horror movie. We drove around the entire town and found only 2 people, no tire tracks, 100's of stray dogs, bats, crows and mist. With the cruisers new roar the whole situation was actually quite hilarious. 

After about an hour or so of looking we finally found another human being, who was thankfully not carrying an axe or massive hooks, but was rather in charge of a car park, and said that we could camp there. Relieved, we set up camp and ate some maggi 2 min. noodles and baked beans - quite a delicacy given the situation.
