... all the pies are filled with meats or vegetables, never fruit and they are not for dessert. LYDC members were quite weirded out by the idea of fruit in a pie and having it for dessert. They all tried it though and some liked it, but for most it was too sweet and they did not like it. Everyone loved the puppy chow and the s'mores though. After dinner, we played charades and they taught us some games they play. It was a ...

Cape Town - The Journey is Half the Adventure
... months of living in Namibia where things are not nearly so bad as far as crime is concerned, I had forgotten that S. Africa is generally not a safe place, especially in the big cities. So, I look out my big white bars at the pretty views in the distance.
