Near Mlowe, unnamed river flowing into lake Malawi
I did not expect to find a huge cathedral on this little island, St Peter’s Cathedral
Metorica on the Lugenda river

It’s a bout 2/3rds on the way to Madagascar (closer to Madagascar)
The pictures off the island remind me of The vanishing of Ethan Carter
Flying on to Madagascar, beautiful night
There is this one light that ignores the dimming settings
While the exposure is increased here, the moonlight was more than sufficient to land normally
