So I totally thought it was Wednesday...definitely losing track of time here!
ANYWAYS! We spent the last 2 days @ Glenrock Farm and it was awesome. I think it’s safe to say everyone would have been fine with staying there the rest of the trip.
Beautiful landscape, great people, 18 person rooms, AWESOME food. Only problem was no heat so at night it was freezing but, we were fine. I got to run for 2 days in a row. Saw some zebra (now pronounced, ZEB-rah). The hosts were so nice too. It was really good stuff.
We might have also had something called South African Beer Olympics go down on Wednesday night. (This was right after we saw the lunar eclipse! SO COOL!) But anyways, Beer Olympics. 4 teams, 2 games, tournament style. Our tour guide Gavin, our bus driver Karel, and someone else might have participated…I don't think I’m supposed to publicize the fact that “someone else” was there. But the gist of the night: it was a good time, everyone had a blasty blast. Then the power went out throughout the whole complex & we were left in total darkness. We went back to our room, which was pitch black. It was very…dark. Good thing I had my handy-dandy prepaid South African cell phone that I love 10 times more than my other cell phone because it has a FLASHLIGHT! Saved the night, basically. :)
Yesterday we went to see a Sangoma that is pretty well-known. Well-known as in, he’s written a book and he’s supposed to be legit. It was a little bit of a let-down. He really commercialized himself and kinda gave us a sales pitch a few times. Not to mention he claims to have stayed under water for 5 hours with his ancestors and also talked about his trip to Hollywood for the Oscars at least a dozen times. Still don’t know why he went for the Oscars. All I know is that, he went. And he has pictures in his office to prove it!
It was a lovely trip to see the Sangoma. Kind of. I guess our expectations were just a lot different than what we saw. Oh! And according to him, PT’s only give massages. That’s it. Then all we get from it is negative energy from the people we give massages to. Lol
So yeah. Now we are at Cane Cutters Resort. Not the kind of resort you would find in Florida or the Bahamas but it is really nice. They keep playing like, club music. Even while we’re eating dinner. It’s alright though, I enjoy dancing and Adam taught Morgan & I a few dance moves to bring back to the States….really get the party going ;) Hah!
