Hey, so I left off with the strike, and the school is now closed until February 16th. Since our spring break has been cancelled we are using this time as our February spring break! .. Currently Jon and I, as well as four other students from UB are at a hostel called Diamond Diggers in Johannesburg, South Africa. It's really nice, we only arrived this afternoon so we've been relaxing and went out to dinner with the owners to a german pub where we sat with the owners of the pub! it was really good traditional german food ( i had schnitzel and rorke?)..
We are going to bed early tonight since we were up to catch a combi to the bus station at 520 this morning. The bus was about 6 hours and included a stop at the border of botswana and south africa where we checked out of botswana, walked into south africa, and checked in there. haha it was an interesting and not so efficient process. but here we are!
tomorrow we will be touring the lion park, a game reserve with the big 5 (rhino, elephant, hippo, lion, buffalo, etc..) and we get to pet the lion cubs! after that we're going to the apartheid museum and then back here to the hostel for dinner and to relax. hopefully sunday we will be moving on to Lesotho, an enclave country in south africa, i'll write more about that once we get there.
have a good weekend!
