Cape Town (Day 1-2)

Cape Town, SA is such a beautiful country with a painful history. These photos are of a tour we took on sunday through the nice/richer area of Cape Town, South Africa. Today we are taking a tour of the townships and compared to thee photos there is such a stark contrast. Unfortunately, for the next postings i will probably be using my small camera because it is very dangerous to bring my lens camera to many places. There is a lot of crime in South Africa that arises due to the drug market and desperate and poor South Africans (i've noticed) eye tourists to see what valuables they can steal from them. Many of the South Africans which I have met, which have either been the staff that work at CCS or on the airplane have been really welcoming. They're so willing to share bits of their culture. This week i will get the chance to learn a bit of the two of the 11 official languages of South Africa. Xhosa and Afrikaans (derived from Dutch).
I still have so much to share but i can't seem to find the right words to express the things i've seen. more to come later :)
