Discovering Matlosane………19.02.2012 Sam.



The North West Province of South Africa;
In fact we had only moved from
Nelspruit in Mpumalanga (on the right)
to Kleksdorp in the North West (in yello)




          Sorry for the delay of my blogging, here is me writing about the last few days……………hopefully you all know the we are discovering a new part of South Africa called Matlosane, and it was a six hour journey to get here however the traffic was horrendous! So then we were stuck on the motorway,
For an extra two hours, in the end I was sat in the car with my mum, my dad and Andrew for EIGHT HOURS! But we did stop for a quick lunch at spur; (a bit like KFC) it was delicious!

          After we had had lunch, we got on to the N12 motorway towards
Jo’burg and then after about twenty minutes people in there cars found out on the radio that a lorry a crashed up ahead, so they got fed up and decided to get off the motorway by using a track on the grass to get to the roundabout to get off the motorway. After five minutes people started to reverse up the hard shoulder and even some people did u-turns as well! It was chaos!
We are staying with the Diseko Family

          We eventually arrived as it was getting dark, and we were staying with a family with three children, the children’s names are Leruo, Gnata and Letlotlo. Their dad is the bishop of Matlosane. The school that they go to starts at 7.30 and they leave their house at 7.00 but they do finish at 2.00.     I‘m glad we don’t go to school that early! I’ll tell you some more soon by for now…………………Sam
