I went to Zambia straight from Jo'burg. It was a pleasant airport but people have warned me and also the internet. The things which goes on in Jo'burg.
I will tell you later about the 2 days I spent there and the differing views of Black & White people, there were Indians too.but no views from them tough.
Zambia, Lusaka was a very interesting place, people always say that they are peaceful and they do mean it.
They are a bunch of nice people, like everywhere.
It was a modern place...things were changing...i guess economy was good....people were richer...and things were alot more expensive..perhaps it was the city..but things were expensive....
the electricity conservation...for the whole of Zambia...how people took it in their strides, without complaining was nice to see....
the frequent talk about doing this and that for the people...the villages..the peoples education and also many..many,,,construtive critism..in the newspapers...about the welfare of Zambians....
It was good to see...people educated...smart...knowing what was happening in their enviroment...and culture...they knew their political situation...
they knew where they were heading....most people know their strides as well....i mean....they were coping...but things were expensive...my fried Hendy was complining that it was exploitation....
where isn't exploitation...talk about Singapore....however,....these people knew their direction...it won't be easy to misguide them and derail this country...
that is how i felt about this fine, beautiful country....nice place..should head to the victoria falls.....which i didn't...i was busy...
I took a bus...from Lusaka to Jo'burg..had to cut throught Zim...land of Mugabe...yap....that was it....
gone...that's what most Zambians said in the bus...people were coming to Lusaka to buy things...
their billion dollar notes were nothing...yes
again..have you ever seen a billion dollar note which has an expiry date on it...try getting some it will create a good laugh....
We got stopped by coppers, what else they wanted.... money...
we were impounded that's what the cops told the bus driver with the people inside....
Zambians inside were laughing...all knew too well.....then... as said we were released after some drink money was given....
Next to Jo'burg...but i must tell you about the night sky..where we stopped to piss....
The milky way...that's what i saw...so nicely..seen in the dark....my..what a slight..
I live too much in the city....and went wow...
when you get to see the beautiful stars...real.....jewels...so far out...and yet always makes you wonder....
Then Jo'burg.....a different story altogather...i was on gaurd...
the taxi driver...whom Chloa...got for me....
this was Henry's friends....he has friend's everywhere....i do mean it...we can't walk on the streets of Lusaka, without someone saying hi to him.....
so chola gets me a cab driver...we go to his place Dove's Nest in Kempton Park...ran by Mari and gaby....they are white folks...
I stress white and black..because it is White and Black...in SA....
while in the cab...i was still keeping my guard....not talking too much...then when i saw that we were heading in the right direction...then
I stared conversing with Issac...the cabby....an old man...very graceful....
Like the one from Driving Miss Daisy...not Morgan Freemen...he can't drive...got into an accident lately...hehee...but he's fine....
so we speak...i ask him what is the story.....aparthied......my..my
tired now wanna go eat...will cont,,,,,soon....give me an hour....so
