South Africa is NOT a third World country. At least everyone I encountered seemed to have overcome egotism, angers, anxieties, consumeristic tendencies. . . . If for no other reason, the trip would have been exhilarating just to have this opportunity to spend a week among people whose lives are dedicated to the transformation of themselves and the transformation of our planet. Designer envelopes for the silverware. More luxurious than U.S. Counterparts.
Seats incline far back.
Snacks and blankets. White and pastel colonial architecture with parks laid out artistically between the azure ocean on one side and the extraordinary Tabletop Mountain on the other. One always knows which is south and north. Capetown seems to be a city second to none in the diversity of population, and the people are living side by side harmoniously. Though I saw relatively few blacks and whites strolling together or sitting together in a restaurant, I saw an easy flow of life, that heroic strides have been made from their grizzly past.
