Cabinda province itself was much the same as the rest of Central Africa,luscious green thick rainforest and no infrastructure at all except in the main population centres. ... We entered Cabinda town itself in darkness but this provided a visual spectacle which wouldn't have been apparent during daylight hours. ...
