Nkata Bay

Since Tuesday I feel like I've been on vacation.
I'm in Nkata Bay on Lake Malawi which is so big it feels like an ocean. I'm staying at a lodge outside of town (down a foot path a located along a sloping hill that leads down into the bay). Lizards with bright blue tails crawl around giant brick steps that lead between chalets and the bar. When you talk to other guests about their plans the general response is "I've been teaching English for about four months, I'll prolly leave when I run out of money in a couple months."
Every couple days someone will take a three hour mini bus to the nearest large town and bring back a newspaper which everyone trades around throughout the day.
On Wednesday my major activity was swimming to the bar.
Today I snorkeled and then sat around eating fresh bread one of the cooks was selling.
