There and Back

After driving the Garden Route, we flew from Port Elizabeth to Johannesburg, and then drove up to Mashatu game park in southern Botswana.  These are a few things that caught my eye on the way there and back down to Joburg.

Waitron?

An excellent addition to any airport.

Fire Arms check-ins were a standard feature at all South African airports.

For those of you who have been seeking it, it turns out to be near Pietersburg in South Africa.

A lot of the townships had these square water towers.  They're artistic, I guess, but they seem like they would be structurally weaker than round ones.
