What would a river be in Africa without our dear friends "The Crocodiles"


Backa was a very nice man we meet one day while walking along the river here in Bangula. He goes our everyday in this man made canoe and fishes for food to provide for his family. It is very dangerous because there are so many crocodiles as you can see in the last picture. He has many friends that have been eaten by the croc"s and a few that have escaped attacks but have lost a leg or an arm. Backa makes about a $1.00 a day risking his life on the river  just to provide for his family. So many people I have met here have been to funerals for aunts,uncles and freinds that have died from crocodile attacks along the river.
So if you think your job at home is a bit dangerous then I suggest you come out here to Malawi and spend the day with Backa in his little rickity canoe and go fishing with the crocodiles for a dollar. Ha Ha I don"t think that would be a great idea, better to stay where you are because I am sure you will live a little longer.

Over and out from Malawi, Africa.

God Bless you All
Amen
