Went to the winelands in Stellenbosch today. David hiked TM w/ the new Germans. The Belgians flaked so it was just Milena and I. It turned out to be a great experience. We went to Spier first. Saw the cheetahs, but I didn’t wait around for the adult encounter since Milena was hungry. I just had an overwhelming sense of contentedness today. I figure I could always pet a cheetah the next time I was in Africa. And if I never wound up in Africa, so what? We then went to Rust en Vrede. Milena had an R150 sirloin lunch. I had a tasting. It was gorgeous. I didn’t take a picture because it didn’t seem like something that could be reproduced in a photo. We went to buy some wine for dinner tonight at a local wine shop. The selection was staggering. On the way back, we had a near death experience. Milena (driving) said, “this is my favorite song” as a track came on. A minute later she drove into the wrong lane of traffic. Fortunately, there wasn’t any immediate oncoming traffic. A driver going in the same direction (in the correct lane) honked furiously. Milena sped up past the divider and got into the correct lane. Thank God the divider didn’t continue for too long. We could have been jam. Looking forward to dinner tonight. We’ll be taking 3 cars b/c the hired van overcharged when they heard we were foreigners (effing SA). Looking even more forward to my flight home Monday. It’ll be nice to see my dog and mellow out. Being disappointed by Justine was upsetting. I’m thinking I may not even try to hang out w/ Iemi this week. She’ll just be another girl/person who lets me down. It’s better I keep to myself. Keep to medicine.
