Cycling Angola
Cycling 2800 KM in Angola in February and March 2014, the most positive surprise among my whole Trans-African journey.
This video features the 12-hour chata trip around the Congo river mouth between Cabinda and Soyo, the sand road until N'zeto, the new roads in the mountains of Quibaxe and Golungo Alto, the non-existent roads and dugout canoe passages in the Landos around Kixinge and Longanhia, the mountain roads around Uku-Seles, Lubango, its carnival, Christo-rei and Tundavala, the Serra-da-Leba road, the last rains of the rainy season in the Cunene province around Otchinjau, and some big caterpillars.
What the video doesn't say is that with Dave (at 16:15), we needed 2-3 hours to clean the sticky mud from the 50-meter stretch between our tents and the gravel road. Nor does it say that I have been taken to police stations almost every day for looking suspicious (and for being a cycle-tourist, or for taking pictures (for example, of the valley at 10:10) without authorization).

South African Pass
How people pass each other in South Africa on undivided highways. And in Europe and South America for that matter. Traffic always moves freely with minimal to no backups along the roads and eliminates dangerous passing by frustrated motorists that try and fly by everybody at once on hills/corners etc..
