I'm going to be mostly in and around Johannesburg and Pretoria, Susan, and we have a pretty full schedule. But tell me your recommendations and I will try to work some of them in.
It really is nice to dress and go about normally, Erica. Like tonight I just put on a wool skirt and a mint green sweater and went out to dinner. It's just a casual place so I don't dress up for that, but they have a nice outdoor patio and the weather was so perfect. I am so happy just to wear some comfortable and pretty clothes and relax and have dinner and a few glasses of beer. I wish all of you had circumstances which allowed that, so I make it a point to be seen as much as possible so that people get used to it. Where ever I go people are a little surprised at first, but after a couple days they get over it, or at least they learn to hide it, which is the same thing. But I do wonder what they say after I leave

Hi Ralitsa
I advise you (if you get a day free) to head east towards the Drakensberg Mountains. The land around Sabie and Graskop is full of wonderful scenery. Visit God's Window near Sabie if you get the chance, its well named. Pilgrims Rest is worth a visit too. A drive along Long Tom's pass is nice if the weather is clear. There are also the Sudwala Caves, interesting as they are very old caves not in limestone.
Enjoy your visit to South Africa.
Best wishes

it looks like I'm not going to get a free day, so I'm not going to be able to see all those things this time, Susan.
But judging from the way things are going it looks like I'll have some more trips down here, and next time I will plan better. There is a lot of work here, and our company seems to be well regarded, so I think I will be involved in a lot of it.
I put a small report on my journey down here into the "creativity corner" section. It was really too long to post here and seemed like it could be regarded more as a story, so anyone interested can go there to see what I've been up to (or down to).
