We took an overnight train from Pietermaritzburg to Joburg on Saturday night. http://www.seat61.com/ gives it a rave review and they were right - fantastic service. We arrived in Joburg 0630 Sunday morning and were met by Patrick's aunt Geraldine and Margaret. Both Dominican nuns who have lived/worked in Joburg for 40 years. They fed us very well: full breakfast, braii for lunch and we got to meet Margaret's niece, Alexis who is studying Sustainable Development at Stellenbosch uni and who had loads of fantastic ideas - hope she follows them up...p.s great to meet feminist nuns!
