South African Diary 22 May – 12 June 2018
The drought broke the night I arrived from England, on 22 May 2018, and it rained heavily, almost non-stop for nearly 3 weeks.
I kept a record of my planning, thoughts, feelings and conversations and think the personal nature of this inquiry is probably best shared in first hand writing with some relevant images to support a selection of entries. (You can enlarge images)
