My first
week was spent at my uncle’s Farm Spes Bona in Odendaalsrus (Free State). Here
I learned that the little car that they were going to let me borrow, wasn’t all
that small at all… I was expected something the size of a mini or maybe
slightly bigger. What I got was a Volkswagen Tauran…
I had to learn to drive on
the left side of the road, so my aunt made me drive on the first day. The
second day she made me drive with only my cousin Zandri and the third alone.
The adjustment was much easier than I thought it would me. There’s just more
space for everything there. The people standing in the middle of the roads at traffic
stops still freak me out a bit. They must be slightly suicidal to do that, in
my opinion...
The week
went by far too quickly. I’d gone to Saskia’s cheerleading session at the Netball/Rugby
event at her school, watched Zandri play and win a Netball competition and
played around with both AJ and Boetie (Who I’ve started calling Gogga – which means
“bug”). At least I'd be seeing them again in only two weeks - with Easter.
