Beach House Nayuka

After about a 10-15 minute boat ride I get to spend a "Free Day" here as a part of my stay at Thomson Art House.
Fresh Grilled Fish

Took almost two hours before it was served but a "Cuca Petra" along with a Caphrina or two.. and a nice chill atmosphere made the wait seem insignificant.
The Caphrina Beach Life

This is no place for a Corona..🤪
Back To Reality

After hours of relaxing it time to head back to the city life of Luanda.
Sunset Cruise

Heading back to the main land.
Slave Museum Sunset

Can't believe I resisted.. although I think I could blame it on CI...Caphrina Impairment.. 🤐
Thomson Breakfast Choices..

Including a light and delicious Tuna Salad 😋
Another Money Exchange

There is definitely a thriving black market for currency exchange with rates fluctuating almost on an hourly basis. This time it's 600 to 1.
The Favelas Of Luanda

Similar to the famous favelas of Rio just outside of Luanda are homes practically stacked one on top of the other.
The Streets Of Luanda

In some areas just outside the city perimeter the roads become gravel and requires some good driving skills even in the dry season.
Shipwreck Beach

A destination that takes was local knowledge to get to. While known for ship graveyard here it is also a decent beach.
Shipwreck Beach

From the mid 1960's various ships have ended up here one way or another. From huge tankers to tugboats.
A Panoramic View

This beach is at least two miles long and serves more than just as a ship graveyard. There are fishing villages along the shore and families enjoy swimming here.
This Little Piggy..

Is going to end up going to the market.. and never going to go back home.
Oh No...

I can't escape it... even in Angola.. Black Friday.. 😠
Everywhere There's Someone..

Who loves New York City 😍
Restaurante Muxima Da Vitoria

A nice local restaurant where you can get a lobster meal for under $7 US dollars. Too bad it's off the beaten path and not worthy to be listed on a TripAdvisor.
The Right Perspective

Besides I don't like milk.. unless it's in cakes or ice cream..🤪
Bessangana

An "Upscale" spot for sports fan or anyone wanting to have a nice dining atmosphere.
Bessagana Free Tastings

Warm bread.. a fish spread.. olives.. and ?? a good way to start of a nice dining experience.
Free Beer Sampling

With a Micro Brewery on property this is a good way to pick up a few customers.

Killer Desert

One way to love.. Chocolate..🤸🤸
