It is July 19th 2008, just after MADIBA’s birthday! We met at Cape Windjammers offices at 9:30 am. The main concern for the day was to go into each others communities and find out about each others backgrounds so that we can understand one another.
We were joined by our bus driver Zuki from Cape Rainbow Tours who was driving us around “Die Kaap”, as well as Dennis, Cape Windjammers president, who – besides Team SA members took video footage of our tour. The Team SA crew comes from different parts of Cape Tw: we went to Fish Hoeck, Bo-Kaap and District Six, Lotus River and Gugulethu. (where I grew up and lived until two years ago). It was really and Xciting day! Very interesting!
Sakhe –signing out
19.07.08 Woodstock, after visiting Team Sa members homes. This was fun!
Many many thanks ! Baaie Dankie ! – Nkosi ! to Alvin Kushner and Cape Rainbow Tours for sponsoring this event with one of your most comfortable coaches and Zuki – the most relaxed and spot on driver! You have given Team SA an opportunity to explore each others homes and hear some of their stories! Cape Town is home to many different worlds - there is far more to learn and to share! One thing is for sure, through their participation in the Tall Ships Race Claire, Shafeeqah, Valentino and Sakhe will come back with fresh eyes to put things in new perspectives. But let’s see what they have to say – watch this space. From now on the team’s logbook entries will be published on this blog!
