Yess.. after a short delay. Arrived in Maputo. The train from Jo’burg arrived at 6.38 in Komatipoort. From there a minibus to Maputo. Arriving in Maputo, arrested by the police. They wanted me to unpack my back in the streets. No way! (of course they were after bribes, my visa was ok). I didn’t want that, so i suggested to go to the police station. After spending too much energy in talking (seven officers in the backyard thought that it was very interesting what I had in my bag. They wanted to make me clear that I was in big trouble and I had to leave my laptop behind. Fifth time in Mozambique, never happened before, by the way). I did not leave my laptop. Now I am free again. Going to the Ministry of Tourism now. Working on stories for newspapers and magazines in Holland and Belgium.

On the killing field
You can see me die
On the nightly news
As you settle down
To your evening meal….
