15 June 2010
Went to dinner with the Harms, Callisters, Dlaminis, and George Dlamini's assistant in Public Relations, we can't remember his or his wife's name, they were very shy and quiet. Discussed the wheel chair program for Swaziland, the Church Humanitrian department is donating 150 wheel chairs to the needy of Swaziland. PR and Missionaries will be involved in this.

Packed our bags and headed for Richards Bay where we stayed with Elder and Sister Pier for the night, she had been in the hospital for 6 days from complications of hernia surgery. They were very hospitable to us, went to dinner for sandwiches with them. Earlier in the day we stopped at Woolsworths (it is still in business in Africa) we bought some food we can't get in Swaziland.

Drove to Makro (South Africa's version of Costco) bought some more food and Vuvuzelas. we will send the vuvuzelas home, Elder Blackburn says it is the most annoying sound ever made. The College age grandchildren will enjoy football games. Elder Blackburn had a Mission Presidency Meeting from 3:30 to 5:30 then all senior couples and Mission President with wife went to the revolving restaurant for dinner. Elder Davis, the mission home car czar drove the mission home van and when we came out of the restaurant someone had smashed the right door window. The van was empty so nothing was stolen. Good laughter, Elder Davis had to fill out an accident report on himself (not the young missionaries). Evening of laughter and shared experiences. We stayed at Crystal Springs Manor B&B. Was very comfortable.
