I’ve been quite busy doing absolutey doing nothing.  


Jim is on his motorcycle journey along the Garden Route. The Cosmopolitan building and South Africa have been facing electricity issues. The power went out around 7:00 PM last night. The air conditioning was intermittent throughout the night. I attempted to use the hot pot for coffee at about 3:00 AM, which was frustrating. It worked by 6:00 AM, but it went off again. I left for breakfast, and the street lights were also out. I tried to take a shower, but there was no hot water, which was disappointing. A text from the building manager says, "they are load shedding."
