Day 27-Ty and Blue Mountain

Erika moved her flight up to spend a few days in the city with family friends before flying home so she left this morning for Joburg. But not before getting up super early Saturday morning to make her delicious bran muffins and bread for us. She also made some for her family friends and the driver taking her to the airport because she is the sweetest person ever. I’ll miss her lots!!

Melissa and I got dressed and called a taxi to take us to TY, I had planned to show her the weavers and may be go to Kome caves (some traditional homes built into the mountainside). We didn’t make it to the caves but we went to the weavers and got the full tour. Then we had lunch at Blue Mountain Inn. Randomly we bumped into Meagan who was having lunch there also with Peace Corp friends! It was really pretty so we sat outside and had pizza. I had forgotten that it was the last Saturday of the month when the Basotho Hat (a tourist shop downtown) has their monthly cultural fair. We were told it closed at 5pm so we took a cab back to Maseru right after lunch hoping to get there before it ended. We got there at 4pm but unfortunately they had already closed for the day. We came back to the Cottage, watched a movie and were lazy the rest of the evening:)
