Since we rented a car, I (Jenna) have been the one driving us around because the car is a standard. But pretty soon Michael will be enrolling in Jenna's Driving Academy!!!! That should be pretty interesting! Driving in Joburg is different from the states because you drive from the right side of the car on the left side of the road. It has taken some time to get used to that, but the thing that still gets me is the blinker. The blinker is located on the right side of the steering wheel and the wipers on the left, and sometimes when we go to change lanes I turn the wipers on instead of the blinker!!! I take Michael to work and pick him up in the evenings so that I have use of the car during the day. It is a about a 10 minute trip one way. Here is a map to show the route we take.
We took a video of part of the trip from the apartment to the court, but the internet connection is slow and not allowing me to post it. Maybe another day!
Here are a few pictures from the out skirts of Joburg towards Soweto.
This is one of the roundabouts leading to our current apartment.
This is the road to our apartment.
