June 17 Wed. - Today was a lot better than yesterday. We did 40 km in 3 1/2 hours in the morning. We then had a nice lunch at noon for 1 1/2 hours in a fancy restaurant quite upscale. The afternoon journey was only 1 1/2 hours to Mount View Training Centre. I got a stomach ache after lunch from eating a cheese potato. I do not normally eat cheese. However a ginger beer cured it. Ginger beer (non alcoholic) became a good friend of mine and I took to drinking as many as I could find. The training centre is now a big farm with pigs, chickens, and a very nice vegetable garden. We ate "rape" kind of like spinach but tastier and stronger for dinner. I ate 5 grams of salt for lunch today and it helped get me through the heat of the day. I am still getting used to all this. After 3 PM it is always nice and cool again. I took so many pictures the next day, that I am showing some here for our Zimbabwean Farm hosts Robert and Jane Lucas.

  





I will have future pics here for more travelogues in the future.
