Here I am again...way into my second week. I want to share this nice picture with you: this is how Jane the landlady serves the butter to her guests. isn't it not really beautiful? Every morning I am amazed at these little things.
I am learning a lot and Jane actually took me for a drive to get to know the area a bit. How beautiful it is here and I have to say I am fascinated with Tablemountain and its whole surroundings. It is hot again today...like yesterday: 37 Degrees Celsius (99*F!!!) and just now I saw the mist coming from across the ocean over Robben Island to us....amazing (I know, for people that live close to the sea it is nothing extraodinary!).
I am learning about the black culture and the white culture and that actually is not an easy issue at all. I looooove to go swimming in the house pool here and I do so every day ...several times. It is really awesome to swim at night when all is dark and that only thing you can see is the stars in the sky!!!
I will move on to my next station. Yes, we found a pleace to stay for me: On monday morning I will go to Granny Jenny, one of the oldest ladies in our church. I am thankful for something for permanent even though it is only another station until I will live in an appartment by myself.
LET YOUR LIGHT SHINE WHEREVER YOU ARE!

Cute dish!
How interesting to see you write about Robben Island... I am reading about Mandela's life right now and how he spent 27 years imprisoned there.
Thanks for your sweet note!
