I don't mean to whine like a little kid, because I know that hundreds (thousands?) of people before me have lived here...and survived.
But right now, I'm just going through one of those patches where I feel like I need to get out of here for a while...even a day.
I've never been a small town kinda girl. Don't get me wrong, it's not like I come from a big city, but still - I need to see concrete buildings. I don't want to turn to my right and see an open veld with mountain goats grazing in the distance. Enough with the mountain goats, already! (that's them on the rigt, by the way)
....and of course, the donkeys
Today I vowed that I will never stay in a town that doesn't have an airport. Reason for this being that today, I had the opportunity of going to Durban (6pm flight), but how to get from G'town to EL...?
There were no buses, and no one I knew that was going through at that time. So - I'm stuck here. I should have taken a donkey!
I have work to do this week-end, but I felt like being spontaneous today.
What a damn pity that I couldn't be spontaneous when there isn't an airport around :(
Hmmmm...imagine if I had my own helicopter?!

I agree. I'm in Grahamstown at the moment and I can't wait to get out of here!! Even if it means working. This small town can really be suffocating!! And if you get an aircraft, hook a sista up.
