I MADE IT!

After two VERY long flights, I have arrived in Cape Town, South Africa!! I actually arrived on yesterday but close enough! The flights were very long but I managed to keep myself somewhat busy the whole time; even though I only slept for about an hour!! Anyways, Cape Town is absolutely beautiful but pretty cold. When we arrived, we were greeted by Quinton, our Resident Director, and brought to the hotel where we will be staying until saturday morning. This morning we met as a large group and got to know each other and got lots of information, some informative while other pieces were not really.... I found out that I am living with a family (YAY!!) except all I know is that the moms name is Margaret and that the house is somewhat close to campus. We then got our cell phones which was very confusing but all worked out in the end. My number is the following but it will probably cost you a fortune to call me unless you have some kind of international plan or card...0823845103 but if you are calling from the US, i think you have to dial 27823845103 but im not positive!!! Well thats it for now, miss you all but ill try to write again soon!!!


Random South Africa fact/finding: There are people that hand out newspapers during red lights to cars...i thought it was odd but maybe not. Also they drive on the left side of the road!!
