The city of crime and wealth

... that there was any interest on Yvette's side but made it clear with her that I had a girlfriend that I missed back home and she told me that she had someone also back home so I guess false alarm.<br><br>Jo'burg is just a big city with a ton of crime. Walked around and everyone lives in castles surrounded by walls, barbed wire, and guards with AK-47s.<br><br>Initially I was planning on making my gradually to Cape Town and flying from the ...

Pandas, Princesses and a Firetrap

... she might have been able to guess that. Besides loading up on souvenirs at the markets, we also were able to surreptitiously purchase Mother's Day gifts to augment the extra special "you get to sleep alone in the big single bed where your feet only hang off the end a little bit" gift; · One of the family favourites from the market was the guy hawking the Kessler Sealer. It is a little tool that, when used with a hair dryer, seals plastic together ...

The LONG drive to Boksburg

... for 7 days we felt like we were leaving friends. Sure the staff should behave that way but they actually went for and beyond. We did promise ourselves we would be back though. When we started to leave Hazyview we saw a small shop selling t-shirts. An urgent requirement for Amy's boyfriend but no luck unfortunately. Back on R40 south towards Nelspruit. We came in one way and we're headed out ...

retrospctiva do tempo na Inglaterra

... nas estradas, todos muito pacientes e ate mesmo sorridentes. Tambem vi lugares que nao esperava conhecer. Parte residenciais pobres e sujas que estao muito longe de qualquer cartao postal do Reino Unido. Terrenos cheios de lixo em lugares que mais parecem guetos onde a classe pobre, composta nao somente de pessoas de racas e paises diferentes mas tambem de familias brancas locais. Diferente do que a maioria deve imaginar quando segue a logica "lugares pobres e sujos, logo ...

Johannesburg - Race, Religion, Reconciliation

... between the races and to help visitors get a sense of the complexities of the society here. A country of nearly 50 million, South Africa is made up of only 10% whites of European descent, half of whom are native English speakers and half speak Afrikaans. The other 90% are blacks or of mixed race with 9 official languages (mostly Zulu, Xhosa and Sotho) and several more unofficial languages. So far, everyone we have run into speaks English ...

Overnight in Jo'burg

So you last heard from us as we had been shopping and sightseeing in Hong Kong and heading off to our next continent Africa... Well the internet in Africa, as we expected, was scarce and so it might seem that we dropped off the face of the planet - not so ! We're now in Mauritius after having had an amazing 6 weeks on the road and now trying to catch up with our blog. It's raining and windy so Alex has gone off to finish his PADI cert and I have been having a ...

Into Africa

... on tour in his 4x4 (no shooting though) so we had a great guided tour of the park from a true professional. We saw lions, elephants, about a million rhino, giraffes as well as loads of impala, waterbuck and the like. We weren't lucky enough to complete the big 5 as the leopard and buffalo remained elusive but I'm sure to be on safari again soon to catch them! So Thurs we head off to Sun City for the golf. After a big (free) feast and a spot of watching the players warm up on the ...

A last toast to Southern Africa

Just wanted to say that my final meal with several black labels was a 500gm steak. Mine and K's meal together (including drinks) cost us £12. This is why I like South Africa. They make the nicest steaks and they're cheap. If it were a cheap flight and close by then I'd go there just for dinner!

I Survived Johannesburg

So, I've just had three nights in Jo'burg with Crosby and friends. Crosby has a nice pad that overlooks Jo'burg and some of the gold mining and mine dumps, where the dirt is yellow. He sells solar cookers out of his house (www.sunfire.co.za). We did well not to feel to trapped in the house (though I was often locked in as S. Africans are crazy about security). We got out to the big herb and root market at Faraday St ...

Blister = bad

I got a blister on the arch of my foot last Saturday. Going swimming made it soft and then on the walk home it got worse. Now it's really bad and very painful. As I have to walk everywhere, it's a real handicap. I didn't bring any Compeed from home ...
