From my apartment in Gardens, I took a random bus to Sea Point, then walked around until I reached Three Anchor Bay. As usual, I had no access to Google Maps. To get back downtown, I jumped on an informal van. Everyone inside was black. I noticed people paying by passing bills to those in front of them, so I did the same. "It's my first time," I said to the lady next to me. "There's a first time for everything," she cheerfully answered. Black, white, colored, Asian or foreign, everyone I've encountered in Cape Town has been extremely pleasant.
