It has been a really really long time since I have posted! Here are some older pictures that and events that I am just now getting up.
I found this paper posted on an elevator at UKZN! One the dates and times listed are time that there will be no power! Now it has been awhile since I've experienced load-shedding, but I hear it will start again when winter comes around!
So this little big guy scared me one night... I was at a hotel and he ran across the floor right next to me and up the curtain behind me.. Probably one of the scariest things because it ran with it's wings up, as if he was preparing to fly up onto me! And then the fact that he went up the curtain ride behind me gave me the heebie jeebies. As you can see, he didn't make it very far after he went up the curtain.
The weather... the weather can be quite crazy here. As you can see, it was 37C one day and then 19C the next day.
This is one of the CLP flats where I would spend my Monday nights, after class. Always a very nice relaxing time.
It was very difficult to get a picture of the fire. I thought it was a house fire, but I was told that this was someone burning the coating off of some copper wire to scrap it.
I actually took this picture this morning! It scared me as I was walking out to the road! In isiZulu its an Icimbi (caterpillar). The person I talked to, said they had never seen a black one before, they are usually green. It's spikes were scary and it's skin was a lot harder/tougher than the sort of caterpillar I'm used to.
