It's May

This photo was taken on the first, and so there's not that much May progress.  I do like that these pieces are a lot smaller than last year's though!

Restaurant Venezia - Steak On A Stone

Steak on a stone is evidently a popular dish in Angola, but not a native dish.  It's served at a few restaurants around town.  One restaurant that has made its name on the dish is Venezia.  Restaurant Venezia, on the inside, looks like an over-neoned melamine diner from the 1960's.  The steak is good, cooked on the stone, though.  Not so good reheated the next day.  Each person gets a stone.  Fries with an egg on them come as a side, and there are three sauces plus salt and pepper for your steak.  It's the garlic sauce that makes it good. We skipped the couvert here.  Overall, a good place to talk with friends if you go before the crowd makes the place too noisy.

New Element

Yay, I got to start a new gargoyle this time!  It's meaning I've made more progress.

Lunch At Kymbu

After the boat trip, we went back into town and had lunch at Kymbu.  It was a good day, and the patio was covered for us.  I had a caprioska, and we had couvert.  Couvert is the bread and bits they bring before the meal, sometimes before you order.  In Angola, they charge you for it.  Most other countries don't.   The photo below is the couvert.

 Andreas got the ham and cheese grilled sandwich.  I got picanha again.  Andreas also had teeny tiny hamburgers.  Everything was good, and we went to Kero to get groceries on the way home.  Lucky us, it poured while we were in the Kero.  We got to drive home in the flooded streets.

Row Of Leaves

Some darning done into leaves.  I think I have three? more bands to go.

More Rivering

Don't look for critters in the foliage.  There are none.  It's just the bank we bumped up against, with a few flowers.  You can see some birds if you look closely in the other photos.  The boat, by the way, was obviously cobbled together from several older boats.  The pontoons didn't leak, but the engine did give out a few times.  Did I mention there was no dock?

Flapped

I am going to call the earflap done.  I also got a lot more done on the blue bumps and will be starting on the green below them very soon.
