Hi Jake - great pics. Really reminds me of Zim a lot. Plus I have a cousin called Nonhlanhla (my dad's side is Ndebele, which is similar to Zulu. At least they can understand each other when they speak, and they have a lot of words in common).Is the family you're staying with Zulu or Ndebele? I should tell you all my Ndebele cousins/friends names in case you come across them there: Bongani, Ntando, Phumuzile, Kampuzile (<-- her other name is Nonhlanhla), Nontokozo, Masiziba (<-- my "name" when I visit my dad's side of the fam), Ndabezihle, Lindani (my dad's name), Sethukile. That's all I can think of for now. Sorry this is totally random!! We miss u guys here - we're going on retreat tomorrow. Have fun! --Musha
