Summing it all up.
 

Dec 2nd, Welkom and to Johannesburg

This was a lovely day, driving around Welcome, visiting Julia, Johnny's daughter and an hour at the Excalibur shooting range before going to Johannesburg.

To the left, the Holiday Inn renamed to Welkom Inn.

To the right, 5 Shnehage Crescent, Flamingo Park where Martin and Elsabe stayed during the years of 1977-1980.

The street of 5 Shnehage Crescent where Martin was running every morning before work.

The owner's dog. His name is John Edward. His telephone is
082 818 5366.

John has put in a pool since 1980. The stand is rather big.

John's pot bellied pig or so he thinks. It may be a warthog or bush pig.

Martin's reloading room and where Tanya was conceived in August 1980.

Tamsin and the pig.

Tamsin and John outside 5 Shnehage Crescent.

Foffo's tree where she chased doves up into the branches and ate them. Clever dog.

Trees in the garden.

Winfred, a friendly local that showed me the road back to the main center of Welkom.

In 2004 this casino for the public was opened. Only 1 in 7 were white.

Julia and her two children. Nadia and Dario.

Nadia and her dog are good buddies.

Martin with Julia and the kids.

Julia and the kids. Julia lives in Welkom, Freestate.

Security is high. Nice spikes at the entrance gate.

Julia making eggs for lunch.

Excalibur Shooting range in Welkom. Nice 50 meter range.

Martin practicing draw from under the shirt. Not easy.

Full rock'n roll at close range.

The area behind the range.

Martin at it at close range. Nice :-)

Finished firing. Slide locked back.

Martin on his bum simulating shooting from a sitting position.

Martin was the only one shooting. The rest was in the bar. Some of them here with Martin before he went off to Johannesburg some 220 km away.  

The following day, Sunday Dec 3rd, Martin had a lovely lunch at Bob & Angie's after driving up from Welkom.
