The North Korean Rocket


 This is the Agostinho Neto memorial.  It rises above the beach and can be seen a long way away from anywhere along the Luanda coastline.  The memorial was built by the North Koreans in friendship with Angola.  We went there last week to look around.  We didn't get the museum tour because the English language guide went to lunch instead, but we did get to see a lot of the outdoors.

Not sure what the elephant is supposed to represent, but next to it is a poem by Neto's wife about self improvement.
