Boa Páscoa in MZ

Our private lagoon













Our Easter hut master suite
















Our rustic kitchen
















Our Easter orchids grew in the trees!




















We found a Catholic Church right in our little beach village.















It was decidedly lower key than St. Patrick's Cathedral.














But the music was just as awesome ...





Mozambican Easter bonnets in church ...


and in the Easter parade!
















After Mass we took a boat across the lagoon to the Indian Ocean for some snorkeling and scuba diving ...




Beyond that spit of sand, the Indian Ocean!










nature's decorated eggs

Instead of pastel colored Easter eggs, we had colorful fishing boats for decorations.










Fishing boats meant that instead of our usual Easter fare like salmon, veal and lamb, we had Mozambican prawns, calamari and langosta in stews, curries and on platters. Fresh off the boat!








Found so many of these large seeds from the Monkey Ladder trees on the beach. After I clean and polish them, they will make great decorations hanging on next year's Easter tabletop tree.
