Walking around downtown Durban
It became pretty obvious that Hollywood had been there first
(You remember how good of a driver he’s NOT, right?)
And had packed his ‘special’ driving skills to bring with him to South Africa
Bless
Then Mum & I went to the markets
And bought some stuff that I guarantee we won’t wear
Ever
But couldn’t resist at the time
Like these stunners!
We Skyped my girls when we got back to the hotel while we were still wearing the hats
And Miss 6 & Miss 4 were like, who are those beautiful hats for?
We LOVE THEM!
So that’s their presents sorted then
As you can tell by the above pic
The locals thought we were utter fucktards
No biggy
It’s not like we didn’t know that already
We stopped to see a street play on the way back to the hotel
There was probably 200 people standing around watching these guys perform
They weren’t speaking in English, so they kind of lost us
But the crowd were going crazy for them
One of the actors had his face painted white
And a fake pregnant belly on
As we walked past
He stopped, pointed to us, said something
And the crowd ROARED!
So we just smiled and waved
Trying to pretend like we knew what he said
Then he said something else
And everyone turned to look at us
Busted out laughing
And started pointing too
Mum’s: Why are they laughing at us?
What do you think he said?
Me: No doubt something about how totally hot we look in our new hats
Mum: You think?
Me: No. He probably said , hey there goes my sister! The blonde one!
With the white face & the big belly just like me!!
Mum: Yeah, that makes more sense
Nice Mum
Nice
I soooooooooooo soooooooooooo want one of those hats!!! Gimme gimme gimme…I LOVE the hats (liefde Taals) and garb of Africa!!! They are so cool (kwaai)! It would complete my Albino, BIG (moerse) MaMa (mallie) African look. Afterall, it is all about IMAGE! []:o)
