Today we spent the day touring organic markets, all fancy and
driven by white south african customers. Also saw some of the
"squatter" areas where immigrants from the rest of Africa have settled.
Now we are at Rianas girlfriends house having a "braai" which is SA for
a potluck BBQ. THey love to bbq here, especially lamb. So we bought
lamb chops and I covered them in lemon, oregano and salt/pepper.
Tomorrow we are going to Sun City, where hopefully we
will see the "Big Five" game....rhino, cheeta, leapord, elephant and
buffalo. We plan to leave at 4 a.m. in hopes to see the animals before
it gets too hot.
Apparently
there is a huge palace to check out. There is also goign to be a big
golfing tournament that hoepfully we can steer clear of. I thnk we are
just going for the day because staying over night would be super
expensive.
Monday I think we are going to check out the Crescent
of Civilization where they found the oldest skeleton and then a lion
park with baby lions.
The country is very
backwards, in terms of poilcy and mentality. I will explain more, but
its quite facinating how the white Afrikaaners and black Africans live
amongst each other. None of it makes any sense.
