Saturday 25th 2014

Yesterday, I had a taxi fare from Musgrave area to The Victoria market. Droping her off at the market I asked whether her earrings were real and she took them off there and then.
Leaving her there with my cell number. I collected her again and on the way I asked her where she was from. Somewhere between Greyton and I think she said Frerer. Doing a 'rotation' in the middle of..... Anyway she had flown in for the weekend and just wanted to see Durban...moving on to Cape Town for a few days and then ultimately back home to San Fransisco. I think she was asian and a doçtor, called Ping.
Also, 3 men from Angola wanted a dDurban Lite one hours ride around the City of Durban.  It was a huge curve ball for me...Iam from Cape Town . The sights.... doing a mental finger count  ..thumb is Mahbide Stadium first off then uShaka, the pointing finger....only need ten surely. They worked in agriculture? And spoke, I think Portugese but could have been Russian. So only added the City Hall driving passed onto the embankment where I presented the harbour. One chap said something about the harbour being one  of the biggest in Africa ...wondered about that. Onto uShaka where I dropped them to have a wonder.
But we started off on Florida Road ...I had a romatic image of Florida Road from the moment I arrived in Durban 15 months ago from Britian. I said food and pubs which they certainly understood because they wantex to be dropped back there.
On the way back we slowly passed Dick King to the click click of a camera and before that I pointed out the rotating John Ross restuarant....a few çlicks.
I left them in front of Europa and called it a day. Day off tomorrow.
