in jo'burg

i have approx. 4 minutes before my time at the internet cafe runs out, but i just thought i'd post that i arrived safely in johannesburg last night. the flight was insanely long and my ankles were pretty swollen, but besides that (and my friend's suitcase going missing), everything was fine. we went the the thorough and well-designed apartheid museum this morning and spent the afternoon at an old prison, which is now the constitutional court. it had amazing architecture! everything is going well here so far- i hope the jet lag doesn't catch up to us too soon!
