I thought it was called “plucking”. Is there something I’m missing? Yes a beautiful house. Having watched the Detective Agency shows I am interested to see if Gabaronne looks the same to you as it does in those shows. And does it feel the same? Are there chickens and goats as well as women in fancy dresses and high heels? I am looking forward to hearing what you are doing besides whatever it is with the chickens!

Gaborone itself is a big city but the outskirts and nearby “villages” like ours are just like the show. the major malls, however, make you feel like you are in the US. We have now spent more time in malls than in the previous 15 years! There are definitely chickens and goats (and cows) even in the City itself and women in fancy dresses and high heels do abound. The women do dress well unless they are in traditional garb then it isn’t dressing badly, just differently- like the picture of me dressed to go to the Thanksgiving Celebration called Ditubaruba.
