Benoni again

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
On Tuesday, we returned to Benoni (passing the new casino (below)
...and the township of Wattville
Several times we saw a blind man, guided by a sighted person, standing at traffic lights (or "robots" as they are called in South Africa), begging for money.
Above: Benoni town centre.
We also saw the ubiquitous taxis - the only way for people to travel if they have no car.
We visited Bruce's mom Yvonne at her house (left) several times. There was usually tea and cake involved...
We all managed to spend a little time with baby Ryder.
Geoff asked if he could have roast lamb one night (the lamb in South Africa is leaner and tastier than English lamb). Many were invited to the feast. Yvonne cooked, Jackie cooked too and Des carved. By the time these pictures were taken, Yvonne wasn't cooking anymore...!
After, we played "30 seconds"
