ndi thanda uMzantsi Afrika!

February 10, 2008 So here I sit, resting after Sunday lunch while Mama Nomsa naps in her room. I arrived yesterday to her humble but warm home on Mendi Ave. in Langa, which is the oldest black township of Cape Town. Nomsa welcomed me with open arms, informing me that my Xhosa name is...

Day 3

Today was a total tour day. We started by walking around the shopping area in the Harbor at Cape Town, and took the cablecars to the Top of Table Mountain for a nice view of the city and Lion's Head.

No worries

The luggage made it. Everything is back to being too easy. Made it out bouldering today up at Table mountain. It was cool. I'm starting to run out of Cape Town things to do though. I think I may rent a car and head up to the rocklands for a while.

So I made it to South Africa in one piece. Too bad my bag didn't. No worries, the airline says they'll let me know as soon as it turns up somewhere. So yeah, I've already written it off, but I'll humor them for a couple days before I replace all my stuff. And by all my stuff, I mean ALL my...
