Just a few thoughts that popped into my head over the first week or so here in Nelspruit, SA.
--- The Beautiful Mountains all around.
(Driving here is so amazing because everywhere you look your surrounded by mountains.)
--- The Accents.
(Everyone here speaks English but they all have sweet accents. 1st, the Afrikans which sounds almost dutch. 2nd, the British. 3rd the Saswati. 4th the Tsonga/ Shangaan.)
--- They drive really well
(Compaired to Mexico)
--- The cars
(Everything is right hand drive, the drive on the left side of the road, half of the cars here are early 90's Volkswagen Golfs, I've seen maybe 5 cars with V8's since I've been here, everything is either front wheel drive of a jeep/ land cruser.
--- The World Cup
(Its everywhere! They built a stadium in Nelspruit. You can't go anywhere without hearing people talk about it.)
--- The Women have amazing balance
(They really do carry lots of stuff on their heads)
--- Nothing's on time
(Its not uncommon for someone to tell you they will be there at 10 and be 3+ hours late.)
--- Prostitution
(South Africa legalized prostitution for the extent of the games)
--- Shorts
(Old white guys wear short shorts, and young black guys wear capris. I wear both)
--- Christmas
(Its hot outside)
--- Prayer
(If you don't seek God everyday you will get so worn out. There is just alot of spiritual warfare going on in this continent)
