Sowetan Scotsmen
Sunday, April 01, 2007
A total contrast to the paranoid security fever at our worryingly pro-Apartheid hostel on a walking tour around the legendary township of Soweto. This place is home to more than a million people; vibrant, friendly and generally safe. We met old comrades of Mandela, inspiring local community groups fighting the spread of Aids and a rather bizarre religious group - the Zion Christian Church - worshiping amongst the tin roof huts with a wild leaping Zulu dance. The really odd part was that they did this dressed in Scottish Kilts!
