I have no idea what I
expected when I landed in Cape Town a little over a week ago, but what I have experienced
so far was definitely not it. Cape Town is far more beautiful than anything I
could ever have imaged. Obviously the scenery is incredible, but the people I
have met so far have exceeded any preconceived notion I may have had.
Today
we participated in the notorious transportation exercise. Our class was divided
into groups to test out mass transit methods like the minibus, the train,
taxis, and the Jammie, UTC’s shuttle. My group was waiting at the Jammie stop
for a little over an hour for the second shuttle into the city. While there we
chatted with another student who was telling us the ropes of Cape Town and in
the meantime, let two of her shuttles pass just so she could spend more time
talking to us.

Yesterday we participate into a community tour and everyone was so happy to see
us. They were all so welcoming and friendly. Visiting the secondary school, is
the happiest anyone has ever been to see us.
