(visited by Thomas Wendel and Brendan Wilson)

12-May-2005 -- I first visited this Confluence three weeks ago, with my brother in law Brendan Wilson, and my daughter Tascha. Unfortunately for me, they both live in South Africa. With them it was a lot more fun, hunting and searching for the Confluence.

The pictures we took three weeks ago didn't turn out too well and that's why I went back this morning to take new ones. The Confluence is only a 40 minutes' drive outside Lilongwe, where I live. It is a very populated area, but the Confluence itself is situated in a small valley, next to a little stream, in the middle of a (at the moment dry) maize field.
