When I say coming soon, I mean it!

Yesterday morning, I promised that I would soon be bringing you pics from my work in and around schools in Kwa Zulu-Natal, South Africa. I also said "coming soon", and I meant it. Just about 17 hours later I bring you some photos (there are plenty of awesome pics from the day and more will follow...soon) captured on visits to schools in Kwa Ngcolosi today. That's some fresh pics!!! I have been working through to 1am to bring them to you so you better like them dammit!

The day was a killer hot day, what you would imagine an African summer day to be, resulting in Tom and I receiving a healthy(?) tans.

If you are wondering about the round huts in the last couple of pics, they are called Rondavels (rondavals?) and are traditional round homes often with thatched roofs and sometimes tin. They are really common here and interesting to see inside, I have stayed in them a few times.

Enjoy the pics and please let me know your thoughts.
