A year ago, I had just arrived in South Africa and was on a tour of Soweto. This photo was taken inside Nelson Mandela's home.
We also visited the monument commemorating the 1976 Student Uprising:
We had lunch at the Sakhumzi Restaurant:
This is a popular place and was quite crowded. The food is served buffet style and the line was long. The closer we got to the food, the more people cut in front of me in line. Eventually, most of my group had filled their plates and were on their way back to the table. One of the last of my tour group, who was about seven or eight people ahead of me, reached through to take my arm and pull me up to where he was. I'd probably still be there... in line... had he not come to my aid.
This was my first full day in South Africa and I think my body was still adjusting to the time difference and the long flight.
