Today was a wonderful day! I finally got to go shopping! I went to the local shopping mall, Greenacres, with Thinus (which was really very nice of him) and it was wonderful! Granted, I didn't know any of the shops and was a bit overwhelmed by them, I got an outfit and another shirt for less then R500 (about $50). Couldn't find that at Crossroads, eh? It is a nice shopping center and everything. Much like an American one, except with different stores. The style is a bit different as well, but not in a bad way. I guess that is because it is winter in Michigan and summer here!
Yesterday we went to our first game park. We saw warthogs, giraffes, zebras, wildebeests, monkeys (granted, we do see those everyday), rhinos, and ostriches. Bekah now believes that we are, finally, in South Africa. Well perhaps a little one. The REAL South Africa, in her mind, has lions, cheetahs, leopards, hyenas, and elephants as well as the above-mentioned animals. Well, yes, it does, but those aren't very near to where we are!
I love PE! School starts on Wednesday, which should be interesting, to say the least. I miss everyone back home quite a lot, but all in all this trip has been spectacular!
