| I woke up at 7:05 AM EST. Morgan and I went down to have breakfast at the restaurant. I am very excited because today, we are visiting the Nelson Mandela Museum. We first visited the Bhunga Building. This building holds artifacts that outline Mandela's journey. It is narrated by his book "A Long Walk to Freedom". There are also gifts that he received while he was serving as president. After we went to the Bhunga Building, we went to Mvezo. Mvezo is the community where Nelson Mandela was born. It is a very peaceful, beautiful town. After Mvezo, we went to Qunu. Qunu is the town where Mandela spent his childhood. It was charming at Qunu. After Qunu, we had lunch at the Two Oceans Restaurant. That was one of the best meals I have ever had. It was very quick, but very good. When we passed through the gift shop, I made sure to buy Nelson Mandela's book, "A Long Walk to Freedom". I am looking forward to reading it as soon as I get home. I heard that it is a very good book. Morgan also bought a copy of "A Long Walk to Freedom". There was a lot of traffic, so it took us a while to get back to our hotel in Upington. We had dinner in the Cheesecake Factory a few blocks away from the hotel. It was very good, but the wait was very long to get in. Everything was delicious. We went back to our hotel, we went swimming. I went to bed at 12:00 PM EST. |
