it's saturday..

... and we are at school! It's linux training for teachers today and we came here too. The weather is very nice today and supposed to be like this on Sunday as well. So, tomorrow we are planning to drive north to the West Coast National Park - it's supposed to be very nice there with lots of wild flowers. Yesterday night we felt quite stressed and that's why just want to get out of Cape Town for a while.

Yesterday after school we went with a friend of ours, Sizwe, who is a student at Esangweni, to his place. He is a dancer and he also teachers dancing to children. So, yesterday they performed on the streets in Khayelitsha. It was great! Even the smallest children were dancing! We took lots of pictures and video. The pictures are here (last pages of the first gallery.) Later we took a walk in the neighbourhood and lots of people joined us. But then, Sizwe suddenly told us that we had to go - he said that there were 2 guys who wanted to rob us but he had just stopped them! After hearing this, we became quite scared and drove away fast. The crime rate in Khayelitsha is very high, especially at the weekends.
