from mowbray to paarl, i encountered:
- four different trains. mowbray - soutriver - eerste rivier - muldersvlei, to bring me to paarl.
- 3 hours and 23 minutes of travelling time over some 50 kilometers.
- logan, who is a demi-chef, is about two change jobs, must therefore live in cape town and plans to study business next year, in stellenbosch.
as i did not encounter people checking tickets anywhere i travelled for free. one time i was told to buy a ticket by the police, but when i went to ask the lady she sent me away to the platform, so i went there, walking past the police again, but they no longer cared.
in paarl i visited the burnett family where we made oatmeal cookies, sushi, and ate both. i also went to amazink eatery in kayamandi the day after, for dian and liezl’s pre-wedding-party in my township-swing outfit, which i do not (yet) have pictures of, but which i did enjoy a lot. we danced and ate pap & wors. all in all, good days.
