The Trip back from Mthatha to Queenstown

We went to District meeting with the Elders at Mthatha while we were there.  The Zone Leaders where also at the District Meeting because they came to do exchanges with the Elders.  Following District meeting, we took the Elders out to McDonalds for lunch.  After that we had to get on the road so we could be back in Queenstown in time for Sister Thomas to help Elder Slabbert begin teaching some of the Queenstown Ward members how to play the piano.  The drive takes about 3 hours and the piano lesson began at 5:00.

On the drive back we took some pictures of the sites along the way.  Just as you leave Mthatha there are some stalls on the side of the road.  You can see one of the chicken shops where you can purchase live chickens and feed to go along with them.  You drive through the small town of Engcobo which is always busy along the main road.  Everyone is trying to do something and there is always a lot of activity.  There are some very nice country homes along the drive.  They are painted just about eveyr color you can imagine.
