Swaziland to Johannesburg

After we left Reilly's Rock, we visited some of the craft venues that Swaziland is known for.  We went to a place where they weave place mats, hot mats, rugs, baskets and all sorts of things.  It was very interesting to see the lady working upstairs
Next we went to the Candle factory.  None of us were too keen on this as we envisioned the candle places here with lots of perfume,etc. But these were non frangranced and were actually amazing works of art and very reasonable.  But space in the suitcase was getting tight at this point.  I allowed myself one rhino candle and that was it. 

It was a LONG drive back to Johannesburg.  It was interesting scenery and I think the scenery in Swaziland was really pretty and I am glad we went. The ride in South Africa back was also interesting but nothing too outstanding after awhile.  We had a nice van and each of us had a seat to ourselves so we had plenty of room even with all our luggage.  We got back to the hotel in Johannesburg and went to the ATM, got pizza and reorganized for the flight to Victoria Falls the next day and hit the hay.
