South-Africa, part I

Yes, that's right, I'm actually in South-Africa!!!!!!! :D:D:D:D

We had a looooong flight down here from 28th til 29. of March, with little sleep on my part, and then we ran around St. Johns College in Johannesburg for several hours before tokk ANOTHER plane to East London! No bed EVER looked more inviting, hehe.

The next day we went to the beach which is only 300m from the hotel! The ocean is actually only half the distance away, but with lots of rocks. There were some fantastic waves there, mom you would have loved it! :)
Then we went to visit local schools in groups, and we met a choir with at least 90 singer age 12 to 20. And WOW... I have taped them, hehe.
After dinner we went to a concert in the same poor area, and had the JOY of joining them in song and dance!!! They loved it almost as much as we did, haha. It was very spontaneous, but that was the charm of it!

Today we are going to an even poorer area, I'll write more about it later!

Now we need to leave, sooo... Bye for now! :D
