Yesterday I helped Nancy do laundry, worked on med school stuff at an internet cafe, and called home for the first time since I left Rwanda. Then we ate dinner in Joburg at a cool Asian place and they had sushi! I ate lots of tuna, salmon, and yellowtail and I introduced the Dimmock kids to eating raw fish. Alifa, the 9-year-old meat eater of the fam scooted her seat right beside me and we finished off rainbow rolls and spicy tuna. It was good.
Today we left Joburg early and drove about 6 hours to the border with Lesotho. Frank's car and our trailer had to be impounded at the border. Hopefully we get it back soon! We are now trying to rent a car. I hope something works out because I need a ride to the airport in Johannesburg in like 10 days. Last time I was at the Joburg airport, the woman at the South African airways desk, looking at my itinerary, asked me how I was planning to get from Malawi to Johannesburg. When I said 'flying by the seat of my pants', she gave me a disapproving look and handed me my ticket to Lilongwe. I'm hoping to get her when I check in again so I can show that grump that I made it.
