Day 64: Non whites only
A reminder of the awfully discriminating past of South Africa, this bench,
along with its counterpart "Whites Only" now resides outside the Cape Town
High Court as a reminder of the past. Thank goodness that is behind us, I
sincerely hope that it is never repeated.

It was forty years ago today, that Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin landed on the moon. Apollo 11, was the first lunar landing, and the 5th Apollo manned mission. Think of the progress we have made since then:
- satellites
- satellite TV
- GPS
- satellite phone
- space stations
- probes to Mars
- satellite mapping of the entire earth (think Google Earth)
