[7:58:01 PM] Kaiha Harris: quite nice today, the sun came out so I went and layed in the pool and fell asleep and got burned.
[7:58:26 PM] ~ktentacles~: what's the best thing you've seen all week?
[7:58:49 PM] Kaiha Harris: the tap dancing guys at the roseland mall roof top market in j'berg
[7:59:00 PM] Kaiha Harris: they were intense
[7:59:23 PM] ~ktentacles~: haha, roof top market?
[7:59:33 PM] ~ktentacles~: is that a clever name or is it actually on a roof?
[8:00:35 PM] Kaiha Harris: haha its actually on the roof... well the top level of a parking garage. and all these people come from all over africa to set up stalls to sell things and there are even food stalls. but you have to bargin for stuff, which i'm not very good at
[8:01:21 PM] ~ktentacles~: have you improved at all?
[8:02:28 PM] Kaiha Harris: not in the slightest! someone tells me the price and i say ummm ummm umm okay! I start to come up with a number but then I chicken out. And i'm sure they all laugh at me when I walk away.

[8:03:01 PM] ~ktentacles~: how is moseby!!
[8:03:30 PM] Kaiha Harris: i actually haven't seen him in a while which makes me a little sad. i think he may have ran away

[8:03:51 PM] ~ktentacles~: does he just live in your backyard?
[8:04:51 PM] Kaiha Harris: yeah, i found him one day. he just mozzied on up to  my pattio, which he had to climb some intense stairs might i add.
[8:05:09 PM] Kaiha Harris: and then the next day he just showed up in my living room and i had no idea where he came from

[8:06:15 PM] Kaiha Harris: tis. but! his causin comes round alot!
[8:06:25 PM] ~ktentacles~: fun!
[8:06:27 PM] Kaiha Harris: i haven't named her yet so i just call her moseby's causin
[8:06:42 PM] ~ktentacles~: aww, that's pretty cute
[8:06:45 PM] ~ktentacles~: and she still comes around?
[8:07:04 PM] Kaiha Harris: yup! she's the one i saved in the monsoon last week
[8:07:40 PM] ~ktentacles~: ooh tell me more about that
[8:10:45 PM] ~ktentacles~: kaihaaaa
[8:10:54 PM] Kaiha Harris: well the clouds were pink and orange in the morning, which is how you tell if its going to rain that day, so we knew it was going to rain. and it had been raining for the past cupple of days. now when it rains here its all or nothing so we were pretty water logged already so i think it was wednesday my mom and i got home right before the rain really started then boom! terential thunderstorm! my pool was level with the water washing over the yard, which was also flooded, then the area off our deck, which is like a foot deep completely filled up. that's where i saw moseby's causin clibing up some mettle mesh and i ran out side and saved her
[8:11:05 PM] ~ktentacles~: oh you were typing a lot hahaha
[8:11:07 PM] Kaiha Harris: she's a tourtois so she couldnt swim
[8:11:12 PM] Kaiha Harris: haha yeah
[8:11:40 PM] ~ktentacles~: aww look at you, that's great
[8:11:54 PM] ~ktentacles~: was there any flooding?
[8:12:40 PM] Kaiha Harris: nothing major, like no houses being washed away or anything. But the lack of gutters here makes the roads flood so its not all that safe
[8:12:48 PM] Kaiha Harris: and then there is the pot hole it creates...
[8:13:04 PM] Kaiha Harris: don't even get me started on pretoria and pot holes...
[8:13:18 PM] ~ktentacles~: ehhe
[8:13:35 PM] ~ktentacles~: how far away are you from "j'berg"? you've told me before but i forget things
[8:14:04 PM] Kaiha Harris: i'm about a 40 minute drive from down town its closer to an hour in traffic though
[8:14:28 PM] ~ktentacles~: not too bad of a drive

As for my segment about my trip.
Its nice is Knysna! (silent k like in knee) Knysna was actually our third stop but Mossel Bay wasn't all that exciting. I slept there, I saw peguins there, and I ran into the ocean there. But in Knysna, whre it is nice, I went kloofing after the hike of death. and litterly I mean death. No joke, up hill both ways. It can happen! Now kloofing is the art of jumping from cliffs into water and kyaking inbetween jumps, but! where we went was to rocky for kayaks there for... kloofing sans kayaks. The place we stayed was called Inyathi Guest House. Its litterly built around trees and tucked so far back it super easy to miss. The family that runs it is awesome too. The husband is a local and his preggers wife is from Whales (and she hates the cold?!!). And of course our callet was the highest hike up and I did not pack light... bleh. On our second day there we just kind of explored and saw where there was to see. And then headed on our way to our next destination. Graff- Reinet.
