South Africa Update: Sugar Coast

Umhlanga (which Susan says is “pronounced umm shlon ga – no lie!”), meaning place of reeds in Zulu, is a resort town just north of Durban in an area known as the Sugar Coast … y’know, for those who don’t know this already. This is where our intrepid explorers swam in the “warm blue/green and gorgeous” Indian Ocean today. 

Other tidbits of information from South Africa, via Susan:
  • Wait staff at restaurants are waitrons. 
  • Geckos are good in the house, they eat insects. 
  • African women sit with their legs strait out and bend from their hips not their knees. 
This has been your South Africa Update. ;0)
