A few more photo´s from Beira





The old Grand Hotel was once an elegant place on the beach, but now is occupied by squatters.

The view from the air coming into Beira

A view near the the harbor, of the riverbank market

Bednets: It´s not the rainy season (prime time for malaria), but we still see people with the illness every day in the clinic

The clinic in the afternoon. When we arrive in the morning, there is usually a crowd of 100 people or so on the porch

Life is pretty mellow: Wake up at 5, run on the beach when it´s light enough at 6, work hard at the clinic from 7:30 to 3, then chill out for the rest of the day. I haven´t had such a relaxing schedule for years!

This old town seems a lot like how people describe Cuba: elegant old buildings that haven´t been maintained in years.
