Paul and Eli Blog in Moz

Eli and I just arrived at the Hotel Cardoso- one of the nicest hotels in Maputo (in fact, in the whole country), and we´ll be here for about a week for an HIV/AIDS conference and our mid-service conference (wow, half way done!). All of this is thanks to PEPFAR; the Presidents Emergency Plan For AIDS Relief; or, how to spend 10 billion dollars quickly. I paid for access to the wireless internet, so we should be able to update from our room here :-) I´ll try to post over the next few days and fill you all in on whats been happening over in our corner of Africa :-) But just as a teaser, here are a few pix:


This is the view from our balcony at the Cardoso- very, very sweet.













Below is a picture of ile from the top of a nearby mountain- we have 2 big ones just beside the town. Most of the houses are mud brick with thatched roofs. The second picture below is from the other side of the same mountain, just showing off the landscape.
