I was helping my Aunt Mampati by attending the South African booth..I must say I had a great time. I didn't believe how many people(different cultures)were so interested in Africa as a whole. Even though I haven't been home in a while I was glad to answer questions about almost everything that we brought to display from the Ndebelle dolls,beads,different kinds of drinking products,even information about South Africa. I met a couple of Americans getting ready to go visist or who have been there before. We met som South Africans diasporas,who have been here for ages.. I GOT A CHANCE TO BRAG TOO ABOUT THE 2010 FIFA WORLD CUP - THE FIRST TIME THE FESTIVAL OF SOCCER WILL BE HELD ON AFRICAN SOIL...1ST..COMPRENDE..UNO.. Thanks to the City of Houston and The IFEST Organization to Salute 'Out Of Africa' the theme this year. 'SIYABONGA NIKHULE NIKHOKHOBE'
