Brai in Bulawayo

Paty took me to this Brai in a garden with son & friends

Brai - African Bar-B-Q

when i ordered a beer, the woman gave me 3- people drink a lot at Brais!

Saturday July 25 Paty invited me to a brai - aka Bar-B-Q. She invited her friends along with the kids. As you see, they cook outside and we sat in a garden with plastic chairs. Food options were sausage, T-bone or chicken with a simple salad. When I went to order drinks, I requested a beer and the woman gave me 3- they just assume that you are there to sit, relax and drink! The H.S. kids asked me lots of questions about studying in the States. The older daughter was off to Armenia to study for 2 years on a scholarship. Hmmm....would we be excited about Armenia? She already knows one Zim student who is there. I put her in contact with some Fulbrighters who studied at Emory. These are middle class people - the friend worked at a telecom company. Kids were studying at private schools. I was lucky to have had this experience.
