Luxury end to our African holiday.

Our flight from Victoria Falls to Joburg was uneventful, perhaps due to the number of missionaries on the flight. I struck up two conversations in queues for check in and boarding, and both guys were zealous missionaries keen to convince me that the spiritual needs of poor Africans were more important than water and sanitation . Oh yes, they would …

Flew into Cape Town yesterday. Lots of shanty houses like Soweto in JoBerg. The Dutch imported slaves from parts of Africa to work the farm areas (sounds familiar?) and these houses with no running water and overcrowded box homes made of corrugated metal are the legacy of slavery. Middle and upper income blacks and coloured now live in integrated …

Fantastic scenery and weather!

Yesterday (Thursday) we took a catamaran to Robben Island where Nelson Mandela was imprisoned for almost 20 years for his political work against apartheid. The island is about 5 miles from Cape Town and is sort of an Alcatraz. Our local guide was someone who was also in prison there. They allocated the quality and quantity of food along racial …

Ensivaikutelmia Kapkaupungista... tai oikeastaan hyvin pienestä osasta sitä, mutta vaikutelma mikä vaikutelma. Päivän ohjelma oli tarkoituksella aika kevyt, sillä yhden valvotun yön ja yhden lentokoneessa torkutun jälkeen duracel-matkaajakaan ei jaksa ihan hirveesti päristää.

Pienen elpymisen Driftersin ihan mukavalla lodgella jälkeen lähdin vaeltamaan. Ainut varsinainen tavoite päivälle oli vissiitti Robben Islandin ...

    Situated right opposite the convention centre, we expected a pretty standard business hotel, but from the moment we checked in we experienced outstanding service. Our luggage had not arrived on the plane, and the concierge immediately took responsibility, successfully, for tracking it down and returning. A hidden secret was the buffet dinner, incredibly good value and the best buffet ever! With "live" stations for fresh salmon or beef, huge array of starters and great desserts. Thanks guys for a wonderful stay.
