Day 28 – Water and Waves

Sept 25th

Logistical Pre-port
We arrive tomorrow at 8AM. We were heavily warned about the high crime rate in South Africa. Luckily, I won’t be near Johannesburg, where crime is supposed to be the worst. They explained Cape Town as “a 1st world harbor with 3rd world conditions on the outside,” we are supposed to be very conscious of traveling in and outside the city. Almost 35% of the population has HIV, so the medical staff was pretty adamant that we not have sex with anyone. Other than that, they just told us to be careful. We all can’t wait for South Africa…

Highs and Lows
My “high” was waking up super skinny from last night’s unfortunate colonoscopy. My “low” was still suffering the after affects of our serious misadventure. Never, never again.
