Today my husband and I did a City Tour of Gaberone with Otto and Andy. These two guides were so warm hearted and kind. They spoke excellent English and they were very knowledgable, patient and helpful. We saw the Three Chiefs statues and heard about the history surrounding them, a local market where we tasted pounded beef (looked like pulled beef) and sugar beans and maize, a graveyard with British soldiers who had died in the Boer war, an art gallery, the university, a township and local villages. Most importantly we learnt about how people in Botswana live; healthcare, marriage and all the ceremonies it entails, social care, education, and even law enforcement and capital punishment and just so much more. We very much loved our afternoon with these two peeps.
