I know! Somehow I have managed to be out of town this year on almost all of these lovely Tonga Hut events, damn!

Since I have a day off, I have ample time to post some impressions from yesterday's shooting day. We had a couple of scenes in the local Laingsburg township, which in comparison to the previous page's Capetown hood is an almost quaint place!:

The scenes were of the "They're poor, but they are happy!" type. Sure.

Oh, how colorful!:

Here they are, those happy ghetto kids:

Flowering vine growing on barbed wire. All the buildings were government built, brick, standard size huts.

A green oasis.

Art imitating life: A hut decorated as the local trader's store.

Really cool toy truck for the kids. Alas, a prop, I am afraid... :)
