The problems are indeed more complex then that. It would be one big rant if I was going to continue on that subject though [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]. But I've been to Cape Town, stayed in sommerset west, after that I took the plane to white river, near nelspruit, stayed in a couple of resorts over there near white river/hazyview/sabie, went on a 3day game drive in sabi sands instead of the kruger park (no idea if this was a good choice). And ended my vacation with a visit of a aids awareness project near grobersdal. It was all good, I wouldn't want to live in SA though, I prefer the west coast of the U.S. above the Cape Town area.

Sounds, good. I haven't seen Sabie Sands, but it shouldn't be that much different from Southern Kruger Park. I've visited Kruger twice, and it's just been awesome.
I'm a supporter of the aids awareness programs down there, but, unfortunately, the people that should recognize the threat aids poses to society and themselves - namely the majority of poor and/or uneducated people - simply don't.

Anyway, I haven't been to the US west coast, but I doubt I'll find it better than Cape Town area.
Also, Somerset West is a kind of a semi-beat, it's like new Germany. More foreigners than locals. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

If you should ever happen to go down there again, don't pass up on the Garden Route - it's by far the most beautiful part of SA imo.
