BRAVING THE UNUSUALLY COLD WEATHER, IVAN AND NEW-FOUND MUSICIAN FRIEND STRIKE A POSE WHILE TRYING TO STRIKE A TUNE ON THE BOAT FROM ROBBEN ISLAND!

Ivan looks like a kid in the middle of a Michigan winter! Not so. He's on a passenger ship returning from a most memorable four hours on Robben Island. We hit it lucky (see following posting), so the college-age musicians made the choppy ride back to Cape Town a lot more enjoyable. The horns were blaring and the drums, along with various percussion instruments, were rocking--as we rode those waves back to harbour! Yet another example of African peoples wanting to share their culture with others--we were very, very fortunate!
