Hey Guys.
Robbie here. From a very warm Jo'burg. Everyday so far has been very nice, very warm and generally nice to just relax in. Just been doing the usual things, stocking up on things I thought I bought or buying things that I forgot to bring. There's talk about going down to Rehoboth this weekend and just chilling out at the coast for a week or so, but we'll have to see. It was interesting to look as we drove around yesterday at people on the side of the street begging. Now, having been here many times before, it's not something new to me, but I was speaking to my aunty who was saying that there are certain guys who walk with a blind or handicapped man, making their begging more realistic and somewhat appealing. It turns out that most of these guys are from Nigeria, Sierra Leone and Up North. They are brought to South Africa as they are told it is a better way of life. It just makes you think, that if this is better than their life up north, there must be something seriously wrong with the state of Africa. It just made me think.
Well, thats all for now. Hope everything isn't too cold in Britain. Its actually just got a bit cold here, better turn the air conditioning down abit.
