Malawi-wowwi

Just thought I'd add some lovely pictures from our recent excursion to Malawi. Crossing the border from Milange (Mozambique) to Mulange (Malawi) is like going from Tijuana to the US. You can just feel the GDP rising. And all of a sudden, you're driving on perfectly paved roads that weave through fragrant fields of tea next to breathtaking mountains. And then we got to Blantrye, which is like a cross between Harlem and the financial district of NYC. There appeared to be a middle class and Amy and I felt comfortable walking around without fear of being mugged or shot. It was liberating!

Malawi is a former British colony, so the official language is English. Some of the more amusingly named businesses include:
1. Hip Hop Barber Shop
2. Chris's Shop...Probably the Best Place
3. Skyway Boozing Den
4. G-Unit Club

is there a reason why you only added one picture?
