We are just wrapping up our first day in Cape Town and are so excited to be here! We spent most of the day getting acclimated, running errands, and exploring the city. Cape Town is such a fascinating place with an extremely complicated history, and we are quickly realizing just how much we have to learn. In our wandering we stumbled upon an annual street parade, in which musical troupes from various communities around Cape Town compete. We got some really beautiful footage of the parade, we have no idea how we might use that footage yet, but it is a great taste of local vibrancy. Tomorrow we will reach out to some of our current contacts to try to line up some interviews, and hopefully meet more people with stories to tell.

More later,
Lynchy and Briana
