The Top Ten Things We are Getting Tired of in South Africa!!

The Top Ten Things We are Getting Tired of in South Africa!

10. Driving on the right side of the road! (this after several near death experience!)

 9. Stupid skeleton key that we can never get to open. (This problem actually resulted in me wetting my pants one day or honestly Roy's pants that I was wearing.)

 8. Having weird electrical outlets (All our electronics when plugged in look like a mexican street pole.)

 7. Having the toilet handle on the right side of the tank instead of on the left like home! (In that moment we can't do everything with our right hand!)

 6. We're tired of dividing everything by 8 to figure out the money! (We can get up to 8x7 but after that we get confused).

 5. Turning a corner at 120 km and facing wild game standing in the middle of the road! (It's only a matter of time before giant ROAD KILL!)

 4. Unmarked speed bumps! (We don't mind the bump it's the airborne part we object too.)

 3. COFFEE! They actually believe that instant coffee is REAL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 2. The internet service or lack of it! FRUSTRATION!!!!!!!!!

 1. AND NUMBER ONE drum roll...... the woman who has been ringing a bell to drum up business in a grocery store adjacent to the internet cafe we are writing this post in for the last hour. Gotta go before Roy goes over and slaps her! BYE!
