I went to Durban for the weekend to thaw out, and to spend time walking the beach and doing lots of reading. I got a cheap airfare and stayed at a backpackers. On Saturday I did a walking tour of the city. A comment the guide made about religions: Apartheid strengthened the bond/relationships among the various religions, as many Jews, Muslims, Catholics, and others worked together against it.
Here are some of the sights from my little trip:
 |
This mosque was once the largest in the southern hemisphere
 |
A Roman Catholic church near the mosque

 |
| Medicinal herbs, one stall of many in Victoria Market |
 |
Home-made clothing, cotton dresses/aprons

| A large barge ship nearing the waterfront |
