Lake Nyasa - The third largest and second deepest lake in Africa.


Likoma and Chizumulu Islands in 1965, scanned from Kodachrome II.
The Portuguese trader Candido José da Costa Cardoso was the first European to visit the lake in 1846. David Livingstone reached the lake in 1859, and named it Lake Nyasa. He also referred to it by a pair of nicknames: Lake of Stars and Lake of Storms. The Lake of Stars nickname came after Livingstone observed lights from the lanterns of the fishermen in Malawi on their boats, that resemble, from a distance, stars in the sky. Wikipedia for further references, please.

As ilhas eram governadas por um "religioso" local e muito pouco dependentes do governo de Blantyre. Consta-me que hoje são "lodges" oferecias ao bem estar dos muito ricos...
