4th Week at the Hospital and Mount Mulanje.

This is my fourth week here at the hospital. Things are going extremely well. I have two talks this week, one on tuesday and one yesterday on antiretroviral therapy. Also, I had a meeting the director to discuss the needs assessment document i have been working on. Very exciting stuff.

This past weekend I made the trip down south, roughly 5 hour drive, to Mount Mulanje, the highest mountain peak and range in Malawi.  I joined up with some Michigan State Med students for the trip (yes, they rubbed it in my face that they beat MD at the buzzer).  It was an adventure.

Thuchila Hut. This is where we stayed the 2nd night. Absolutely beautiful. 

View outside of Thuchila hit. Feels like your on the roof of the world. Cool shot.

A jungle stream with crystal clear water. It was magnificent. We went swimming. 

Climbing the near 50 degrees sheer rock slops on the way to thighest peak in Malawi, Sapitawa. In Chichewa, Sapitawa means, "do not go here"
