Saturday dinner at Chief Boms's (Zulu) Restaurant

 

This was the 'show' entertainment at the dinner - very good - played "The Lion Sleeps tonight!" and lots of other African songs.
The whole place was decorated with famous Zulu's chiefs and artifacts.

The 'boofae' - was how the waiter said it!  Delicious and extensive salad bar, then you choose the raw meat you wanted and they cooked it right then!  Dad had wildebeest, impala and springbok - I had pork roast!  It was a little strange to eat the same kind of animals we had seen earlier in the day.  The springbok was the most tasty, the impala and wildebeest a little tough!!
Fun to learn some more about the original inhabitants of the area.
Large statue to a Zulu Chief.  It was a fun place, a little hard to drive home in the dark, but Elder Humphries did it!

  Sunday October 31, Elder and Sister Elggren drove us to our assigned ward - the Kwa Thelma 2nd ward.  It was Stake Conference and both wards met together - great talks!  Wonderful to meet the people we will be serving on Sundays.  It is about a 40 minute drive from the city - delightful children. The Temple is right next to the Area Offices - all are in a park like setting - an old estate that the Church purchased. View from behind the temple. Little lizard on the post of the steps into the office!   Part of the Office buildings - underground parking door in the middle of the picture. The door to our department. Desk in front is Elder Smith's - mine just behind it.  Further on is the Humanitarian couple's office. Interesting poster in another hallway.
