Africa Time begins
... experience but a nice gentle intro (& another test ground for my list). Somehow my watch died in all this so even Africa time might now be a challenge.
Sunday we took the Jo'burg day tour - the main part of which is the Apartheid Museum which is quite a distressing experience. I'm still not sure how it got that bad and how it has turned out OK so far. We were then taken around part of Soweto (3m live there now) which is a bit ...
