WIDE OPEN SPACES

As I ready myself to leave Joburg I am thinking of all the things I'll miss once I am in London... just so I can ease the culture shock on the other side and lower my expectations... twisted but it might work (bad weather...check, moody people...check! Ok I think I can handle this!):p
And if I think back to when I had just returned from 6 months in China I distinctly recall driving from the airport and having this overwhelming feeling of SPACE, FREEEEEDOM!!! I also find that there is a more generous amount of this space in the Highveld compared to the coastlines of South Africa. Gotta be some bonuses for living inland... And so today, as I was enjoying the park and saying goodbye to all my near and dear, it came up again... A friend was talking about just how deep the sky's are in Joburg. A wonderful cure for anyone with claustrophobic tendencies. Gotta Love it!
