This day turned out to be a vit of a disaster in that nothing we planned seemed to happen. We had arranged to go to Masakala Guest House for a traditional African meal, however, communication failed and we only discovered this after we had arrived. Therefore it was back to Matatiele where we ended up descending on a Coffee Shop and ordering lunch for 16.We then went to visit a project associated with the orphanage that worked with street boys and provided them a home and education. It has a very good success rate with boys staying with them until they leave school. The project also helps them find work. However, the house warden there was not aware that we were coming and so we felt it best not to intrude. So we went to the supermarket and stocked up on sweets!
After some time at Cathy's house (where Tom's stitches were removed) we went our separate ways for the evening.
That traditional African meal is going to taste soo good when you finally have it. Sounds like you are having a great time! Can't wait to see all the pictures, there is some talk of having a presentation about the trip at Diocesan House. Look forward to it.
