Re: What parts of Africa would you most want to spend your retirement Posted on: Mon, 02 May 2005 03:45:33 GMT


I agree.

I just got back from Sa and Zimbabwe. There is a big difference between the
countries. It's like the difference between the US and Central America.

I think SA is more like a European country than an African country.

I think the prices in SA are high (compared to the US) but that may be because
the dollar is weak.


There is only one thing that makes me not want to make a return visit to SA.
It is the long flights. Coming home, I was in that SAA plane for 20 hours.
