Our flight to Amsterdam was a bit late so we missed the connecting flight to Cape Town. We spent the day in Amsterdam walking around looking at the people and the buildings, and eating fries.
Later that night we flew to London, and just barely made it on the flight from London to Cape Town. We were racing through Heathrow airport, taking trams and running with our bags, and were actually stunned that we actually made it on.
We arrived in Cape Town this morning, exhausted but relieved. Marty talked the cab driver from 180 rand to 130, and he drove us to our hotel. The other clip is from the cab, showing my first view of a township as we speed along. We met Claire and Kristine, the LEAP organizers of the program, at the hotel. Marty took me to the store to buy a pepper-steak pie and a cream soda, and when we got back to the hotel, we could sleep at last!
For dinner I met the LEAP group at a restaurant down the street, and was introduced to the people I don't know. We ate a nice dinner, got cell phones to stay in touch with each other, and discussed the plan for the week. Hopefully I can get some interviews and photos of everybody over the next day or so.
Luli, how do you see the clips? They're at me.com?
