Luanda, Angola

Those of us who continued on are in Luanda, Angola today. The people are so happy to have us here. We had a police escort for our excursion (4 small buses)(primarily to get us through traffic). A TV team followed our excursion, and some of us will probably be on the news tonight. Whatever we can do to bring joy☺️😁🤣

We saw the church of St Mary Nasaré. The ladies were saying the rosary, so we couldn't really go in, but I got a couple of nice pictures through the window.
The Military Museum & Fort was interesting. The interior building housed the museum, which had beautiful Portuguese tiles- the inner ring was African animals, while the outer focused on humans. There were weapons- Soviet & Cuban.
We had a Police escort throughout the excursion- we were an "event".
The Beaches were lovely.
Our last stop was at the mausoleum of Aughostinho Neto- first president of Angola.Leia mais
