We're travelling to Cape Town, South Africa in Dec. '07 & Jan. '08. There is supposedly a big "festival" on 1/1 & 1/2. Is it safe? We're caucasian, but love all races! Will we be happily included in the festivities? Is it a black celebration only? Any details you might know would be great. (No guesses, please). Someone that has been there would be ideal.
Thanks!

What other must-do things are there to do in these countries? Any recommendations on hotels and restaurants for before and after a safari? Since I'll probably only go once, I'd like the trip to be as special as possible. Our price range is moderate to moderately expensive.

Their government (including the president) is comprised of many Soviet trained thugs. The ANC government came to power with the blood of men, women and children on its hands.
Apartheid has been reinstituted - this time called BEE - and now favors blacks. South African politicians (as far up as the deputy president) are constantly on trial for offenses ranging from fraud to rape. And always being acquitted.
All those innocent people on trial - go figure.
The infrastructure, built by the previous government, has crumbled and now Johannesburg is one of the most dangerous cities on Earth. The world famous Carlton Hotel has been deserted for years.
Rape, murder and other violent crime are out of control and the corrupt, inept police force does nothing about it.
The currency is worth nothing, the so-called government is more concerned with enriching themselves and the average South African is no better off than they were under apartheid.

The Bok De la Rey one? Has anyone heard his song? I personally have not, but there has been a big hoo haa over it. Seems like everyone has their own opinions on what he meant. Is it a fight against the struggle? An innocent song? I don't know and don't care. If it makes him happy then so be it. He apparently posts on white supremist forums. I say apparently because I cannot confirm that fact.
Everyone has their own hang ups and interpretations of things, so I think we should let him be. I know one thing for sure though, he is laughing all the way to the bank!

i mean really...
going on and on about how bad South Africa is, yadda, yadda this...yap, yap, yap, that! and funny enough, most of these yapping kings dont even live here anymore, but they seemingly seem to know more about RSA, than the actual residents of this country. This whole yapping, hasnt helped much, has it? Bitter people who cant afford to do anything but blaze SA...what the hell does that do for you? make you feel better? improve the countries condition? i suggest if anyone is going to talk, they best be talking about solutions and not problems... a lot of us carry a hope in our hearts, i love my home country. i've nowhere else coz this place is my origin...i've no distant cousin in europe or somewhere else overseas, who can set me up for a while after i leave this place...etc. So pls, just leave...or offer solutions...thank you!

In addition, what do you guys think South Africa's chances are of retaining this privilege, bearing in mind the rising concern of our ability to host and crime/ corruption levels in this country?

Surfing the 'net I found out about 'Freedom Park.' Apparently it's a monument honoring those that fell during 'the struggle' to 'free South Africa.'
I also read about the debate surrounding the names included on the wall honoring 'those that fell.'
Amongst the 68 000 names, not one name of a former SADF member - one of the finest armies ever to walk the Earth - is included. Mmmmm....whatever happened to reconciliation? Especially for conscripted soldiers?
The wall does, however, include the names of Cuban soldiers that were killed.

This quote from Mongane Wally Serote - CEO of The Freedom Park Foundation highlights the evil hypocrisy behind this (italics mine):
" The CUBANS helped fight for FREEDOM in Africa, they played a role in ending apartheid and they should be honored for that."

Hi

I'm a South African that's lived in the UK and am now one of the thousands making their way back to SA! So looking forward to it! Just one issue, and that is that we don't yet know where to settle, and cannot make up our minds. All the work seems to be in Joburg, but can one really live there? Is it not just another big city? Anyone know agencies in Pretoria maybe? And how's Durban and traffic? ok? And Richards Bay, is this an option?
