... meager rations for food make for a terrible existence. One particularly interesting part of the tour is the part in the maximum security prison. The guides for the prison are all former political prisoners. So, you get a chance to hear a first hand account of what it was like to be a prisoner and kept on Robben Island. The most interesting part to me was why he had come back to guide. Basically he said that he just needed work and he had had a terribly difficult time ...

... to sit down and be calm. Outside of the clinic were about 25 men, large sticks in hand, shouting and telling everyone to get out. One of them actually got in somehow and began ushering out the patients and screaming at the sisters. We grabbed our bags and stayed close together as we all went out the side door, and Lindsey told the three of us interns to get in his car. The men were blocking the driveway to get out, so we just waited. The police ...

3 May 2009 - Sunday 8:30am we were on our bikes heading out of the valley with the sun shining directly into our eyes. Nothing like trying to stay on the road with only about 10% of your vision. As we came off the tar road onto the gravel beside the Swartberg Nature Reserve, we had a bit of a heartstopping moment. Koos was riding ahead, me following on ...

... the guys we were with that were watching us could hear her screaming as she came down. Thankfully it has been captured on film so no doubt you'll be getting a butchers at that sometime. I loved it and would love to do another one further down the line, money permitting of course. The next day we went sandboarding, which basically involved shooting down big **** sand dunes laying face down on a polished sheet of vinyl. Again really good fun and again we have video of this. I ...

... of grabbing a poopy towel, a poopy penguin belly or raw fish and seafood with no latex in between is horrifying. reluctantly, i have settled into this workflow because it is faster but when i smelled my hands as i was eating my dinner at the movies tonight, i smelled nothing but penguin. yeah, that was a surprise. i promise photos in the next day or so. the connection at my guesthouse is slow but i know of a good internet cafe 20 min walk from here.

... way down we stop in the towns of Muizenebrg, Kalk, Fishhoek, Simonstown and Boulders, where a colony of African Penguins make their home. African Penguins used to number 1.5 million and their habitat extended all the way up into the Namibian coast. Warming climates and overfishing for herring and smelt has destroyed most of their habitat and now their numbers are down by 90%. The decline in the penguin population has also led to a decline in the ...

... of a bunch of my guy friends from home with a funny accent! From dinner, we stop by a house party in Sea Point before making rounds to three bars to check out the scene. It's a shame I don't have more time to stay here as the city is gorgeous, the nightlife is hopping, and there seem to be an endless amount of activities to do in the surrounding area. We get home around 2 and I stay awake to update the blog until 5 or so... I'm all caught up though!

... In short, the biggest difference between the zoo and a safari is that in the zoo, the animals are in a cage; on a safari, you are in a cage. With my exploration of Pretoria complete, I boarded the Karoo Express to Cape Town the following day. Unfortunately, the train departed from Jo'burg so I found myself on a 45 minute bus ride to the train station. No sooner had I gotten off the bus near the station than a white guy approached me with some scam about how he and his ...

... iets te lomp ;p ..en brak haar pot. Als ze klaar zijn dan zal ik er wat foto's van de potjes op zetten. Voor nu zullen jullie het moeten doen met foto's van mij terwijl ik mijn bakjes aan het bewerken ben. Het was een erg leuke ervaring om te zien hoe het er op een high school aan toe gaat. Dinsdag avond ben ik samen met Carin,Anneke en een vriendin van Carin naar de bioscoop geweest. Het was een hele mooie film genaamd ...

... or family, renting a fully equipped vehicle that comes with a tent and camping gear is an easy, safe and relatively affordable way to see southern Africa. We think most people (including children) would love the sights, remarkable wildlife, dazzling landscapes, and ease of travel by driving themselves through Botswana, Namibia, and South Africa. The roads are mostly asphalt or very well maintained gravel, signs are all in English, and there are plenty of modern gas ...
