Another 4th of July post on July 7th

We went to Durban today to attend a VIP party that had something to do with the U.S. Embassy. Everyone there was some sort of diplomat. Don't ask me anymore than that because I don't know. The Director or Ambassador or whatever his title was gave a moving speech in Zulu, which he clearly read, but he was still better than all of us because there wasn't a 15-second pause inbetween each word while he figured out what to say next....

Tomorrow we're going to Ecazabini Homestead (http://www.aatravel.co.za/viewaccom.jsp?code=058148) (http://pmb-midlands.kzn.org.za/pmb-midlands/about/96.xml). I'll try to post pictures from today's party etc tomorrow.

Finally got to talk to Chris today. It's been hit and miss. We had different times, bad phone cards, and, evidently, the wrong phone number. Whoops. He's moving to San Bruno today. Safe travelling, Chris.
