11/29/17 - On 11/10, We got up at 7 00 am, breakfast at 7 30 am and then we gathered for a talk regarding David Livingston who was very prominent in helping to develop the region. It was very interesting. We then gathered for a group picture. Four of the group were not going on to Capetown but were leaving for home in the afternoon. On the way to the airport, we stopped and met Manuel's family. It was so nice to met his family. Eleven of us left at 11 45 am for Capetown. We exchanged some money at the airport since South Africa uses rands. We then checked into the Inn on the Square. They had some punch for us. In the evening, we went to a host family in the colored section of town for dinner. The family consisted of a father, mother, 8 year old and 6 month baby. In Africa, it is common for towns to be divided into black people, white people and colored people (colored are bi-racial). The dinner was delicious and had a nice time getting to know the family. Both mother and father work and grandma does the babysitting. Back to the hotel for the evening.
