In order to visit Malawi Lake, I deliberately found a local bodyguard, when I got on the bus, because the local bus was particularly crowded, I gave the 2,000 yuan that sat in the front, and then let him change the position of the co-driver with me, and the people in the car began to attack me for privilege, and finally my bodyguard stood up and raised his fist and told everyone that if they bullied me, he would fight with them, it seems that my bodyguard really did not choose wrong, although his size is very small, But with that kind of protection like raising my fist, I made me feel very reliable.
This bodyguard was particularly confident, he told me that he knew the way to Lake Malawi, and then he took me to the local minibus, which was too crowded, so I gave money, and then sat in the co-pilot's seat, you can listen to the driver playing local Malawi music all the way, and you feel very happy. I thought it would arrive soon, but under the bodyguard's arrangement, I turned the minibus three times in total, feeling as if it had been sold, turning around and turning around until I reached the area where Lake Malawi was located in the afternoon, but when I argued with this bodyguard, he always confidently told me that it was no problem, no problem, and it would arrive soon.
The small fishing village next to Lake Malawi is full of fishermen, and the whole village smells of fish. We walked around the village and felt that the village of Lake Malawi was richer than the rest of Malawi, probably because the fish in Lake Malawi were very abundant. I will always remember the first time I arrived at Lake Malawi, the lake hidden in the African plains and jungles like a jewel, hidden in the unknown place, he was so calm and so wide that it looked like the sea, but it was as gentle as a lake. This reminds me of Africa's rich gemstones, crystals, diamonds, and so on. Africa is a magically rich and abundant land, which is relatively backward because of historical, colonial reasons, etc.

In the evening we sat by the lake with two or three foreign tourists and had dinner, which was a very beautiful dinner, because it was still raining lightly, and at this time my bodyguard quarreled with the two foreigners again, he was a Christian, most of the people in Malawi believed in Christianity, and the two men asked him about the existence of God or not, because of this matter, they quarreled, and saw that my little bodyguard suddenly became very brave and unflinching. Finally, I told him not to quarrel anymore, you are here to protect me, not to argue with others about these problems, to resolve this embarrassment.

I sailed in a small boat toward the center of the lake, but the lake was so wide that it was the third largest lake in Africa, and it was really endless and I couldn't see the opposite side.
In the afternoon I began to swim in the lake, such a beautiful lake, there is no one, only some locals are fishing, only I am swimming, when I sit at the water's edge, the small fish in the water began to kiss my feet, that feeling is really the most wonderful greeting of Lake Malawi, suddenly made me feel very friendly and friendly, I swam in that lake until the evening.

Lake Malawi is surrounded by some green hills and woods, these mountains have a lot of monkeys, usually crouched on the rocks by the lake, we saw a lot of swimming and boating, these monkeys are still more afraid of people, see us and run back, but I also took two pictures is relatively far away, not very clear.

The next afternoon my bodyguard and I were satisfied to prepare for the return trip, and on the way back the bodyguard specifically told me that he wanted to buy a few fish, so I bought a few fish from Lake Malawi and gave them to him, he had been out for two days, so he took a few fish back, and he had to explain to his wife and children, and he could also eat a beautiful dinner. When we came back, we waited for the bus on the side of the road and were very lucky enough to catch a ride, a medical institution car, and took us from Malawi to Blantyre all the way to Blantyre, which was a very memorable experience of visiting Lake Malawi, which is definitely a beautiful sight in the Great Rift Valley of East Africa that is worth exploring.

Lake Malawi is really too big, there are more than 500 kilometers of shoreline, this time I only chose a place called monkey bay, which is already very beautiful, I believe that other places will have more beautiful discoveries, and can only wait until the next opportunity to explore.
