Nightmare Before Christmas Wholesale

Durban and Port St. John St. Lucia, South Africa.

Allora, ecco la minimappa dei posti che ho visto finora. Da Johannesburg a Maputo, su a Tofo e Inhambane, ancora su fino a Vilankulo e l'arcipelago Bazaruto, di nuovo giu' a Maputo, quindi Swaziland e St. Lucia in Sud Africa. Adesso, dopo poco piu' di 3 settimane, sono entrato in una nuova "fase mentale", quella tipica del viaggio. Mi sembrano gia' cosi' lontani i giorni a Varsavia a "lavorare" o "giocare", se preferite (per chi non mi conosce: il mio lavoro consiste nel giocare ai videogiochi e controllare che il testo in italiano sia corretto). Il fatto e' che prima di ogni lungo viaggio, o meglio prima di ogni lungo viaggio in questi ultimi anni che sono diventato un po' vecchiarello, c'e' sempre un momento di "pigrizia", una piccola parte di me che borbotta un po', ci si e' cosi' abituati alle comodita', un bel letto, una bella stanza, una certa routine, che insomma piagnucola di dover abbandonare tutto questo per i soliti stenti tramp. But already 'now no "voice" mutters more'. There 's such a gulf between the way of life and that of domestic travel, there is no' short comparison. Every day, 'a new adventure every day new people and places, a place where you're like us, if you do not like you go. If you want to be with others there are, if you want to be alone you really are all alone.
Here in St. Lucia to tell the truth, and 'impossible to be alone' cause the South Africans (white) are on vacation for a hospitality 'extreme and invite me to any event: BBQ, ping pong tournaments, pool etc. .. . There 'a climate of very pleasing addition to the heat I mean, there are holidays and everyone is here with a great desire to have fun, drink, to casino. The City 'and' little girl, the typical place to vacation as there are all over the world, that 'a street full of restaurants, clubs, pubs and various shops. But all around 'and' Africa. A large lake (but that 'at this point seems more' a broad river) meets the ocean in the middle and form a dense forest. There are crocodiles and hippos, the first I saw them simply by staying seated on a dock, leap out of the water every now and then rimmergono, hippos instead just do not want to see me, but I have seen them all now, yet are big! Then there are a lot of gray monkeys, agile and schizzatissime, very funny to see, with the only problem that early in the morning jump on the roof of the room and wake me up.
From what I understand the whole coast of South Africa starting here and going to the west and 'made up of a myriad of small villages like this one, but' each with its own specific characteristics. Catered 'for all tastes: whether or not tourist places, beaches, big or small, quiet Burdell or, in other words there is' an embarrassment of choice.

Thanks for the comments. I respond to one.
Savior, you should know that as a fan are on strike until they abdicate 'the president (and then we will form a cooperative). But I would 'just remember it a magical night of withdrawal or the strike, namely May 28, 2003 in Manchester (and one day I will be able' to say I was there!). Sconfittuccia a few here and there in the league 'due to a referee in his career do not care much. Photo


all of Swaziland. Danilo, do not worry, the sea will be back 'soon!
Remember that clicking on the pictures come out more 'big.
