Saturday was the national rugby team - the springboks - game. We went to Barneys to watch that. There were so many people everywhere, taking springbok shots, wearing springbok jerseys. Crazy. It was fun to watch the tv though because all the team members had worked out in our gym all week so we were just pointing the whole time saying, "o I've seen him, i've seen him." ha.
SA beat New Zealand. We did get to see the Hakka(?) before the game though which was cool. After the game we got dinner on the boardwalk and then met some friends at night. PE was crazy! People, young and old, where ALL out. Bars were charging new covers and lines of people waiting to get inside somewhere were all over.
Today we woke up and went to church. Pumeza's church was celebrating it's 21st anniversary so she invited us to the service and we met a lot of people and had refreshments afterwards. The minister was actually visiting from Wisconsin and we got to meet him. It was a very nice experience. A lot more singing than I've ever experienced. I laughed a bit because the last church I went to abroad was when I was in Spain - I went to a cathedral attached to the monastery I was boarding at...very dark, cold, and much more rigid. It was funny to think about.
Missing people.
