I live in Africa. Limpopo Province, South Africa. It's a bit different up here than in the rest of South Africa. Around ten degrees hotter for one thing. We have low mountains, amazing wildlife and a twelve mile wide gaping hole in the ground that the international community assures us is necessary if they want to continue to invest in our country. (Actually it's to keep the price of platinum, diamonds etc low and ssshhhh don't even mention Uranium just DON'T).![open cast mine.jpg] (

We have an idyllic local village next to a river that has been dammed miles above. The mine gets the dam water. The people get, well, whatever that stuff that comes out the taps is. I buy water from a shop. But not all is intolerable. Comedy abounds! The bush here is spectacular and every year we get marula season. It's a fruit made famous by some wildlife documentaries showing the effects of the fruit on drunk animals. Apparently it lies there fermenting until they eat it. 
Sorry no, that's a picture of a local politician, I'll try and find a pic of local drunk wildlife to replace it.
In South Africa we expend all of our energy discussing moot topics like what colour we are and neglect to inform ourselves of the realities of our situation. We will shortly not have enough drinking water for everybody. People say clever things like desalination without doing the math around how much energy is required to make water travel up hill. Sigh. Anyhow. New to the Steem thing and thought I'd let the world know what it's like down here where half the population believe that Jerusalem is local to us and actually do go on an annual pilgrimage. In Mordor. No really, the Zionist church here in Sub Saharan Africa worships in a place in the mountains called Mordor and have lands named after bibllical places which their followers believe are the real places mentioned in ancient texts like the King James bible. If I could I'd throw everyone in that huge hole, but then it's only there because of the colonist who gave birth to me. I think drunk giraffes might actually be my favourite people. Certainly a drunk giraffe would do a better job of running South Africa than the current kakistocratic kleptocrats in power since 2008 when Mbeki got the boot for being too something.
