After a busy Thursday, Friday and Saturday, we took Annelise from MakerBot around Johannesburg and showed off a little. We started at the Rosebank Rooftop Market, where there is such a vibrant display of African artistry.
We asked one of the stall owners to please blow a Vuvuzela for Annelise so she could hear that African sound. And then we asked her to imagine 5000 Vuvuzela’s in a stadium and the reverberation that takes place.
We found some nice things for Annelise to take back to the USA. We snuck in some items from us too like authentic art work and a Zulu doll plus some stunning material.
We stopped off at the food stall and bought some traditional Vetkoek and Mince for a snack. It was awesome and I think that may become part of Annelise’s recipe collection when she gets back home. Luckily they did not have any fried Mopane worms…
We came home for a home cooked meal of Roast Lamb with all the trimmings. We went out for frozen yogurt for desert and then took a stroll around Monte Casino.
All in all it was a fabulous day. Thank you MakerBot for sending Annelise over the pond to SA.
