Kajal, Kürbis & Co.

To counteract the "You don't look so well yet" comments, I'm going to put on some makeup again this morning. I'm actually feeling pretty good again now – I just don't look it yet. 😂

Due to space constraints, I'd only packed eyeliner and mascara. Unfortunately, the eyeliner tube wouldn't twist up any further. Surely there was still some product left inside! So I simply broke it, and sure enough, about three millimeters of it appeared. However, my attempt to use this precious piece with tweezers ended with it falling onto the brown patterned carpet and disappearing forever. 🙈 With the remaining bits on the tweezers and a little mascara, I at least managed to elicit a comment: "Oh yeah, you look completely different!" 😂

Since we needed a few things anyway, we then drove to a supermarket – and found it almost worth seeing. Huge mountains of avocados, oranges, sweet potatoes and pumpkins, an entire wall full of eggs, spices and other groceries for self-service filling, and in between, beautiful bouquets of proteas and other South African flowers.

I wander through the aisles in awe, photographing mountains of vegetables. Apparently, I've reached the point in our trip where I'm not only fascinated by elephants and lions, but also by avocados and eggs. 😂
