Journal Entry
I really needed that sleep yesterday! Hahahaha!
Today was a bit tough. There are bus strikes in Cape Town. So traffic sucked. Here is why.
The City actually has a very well organized bus route network that was built up and upgraded in an ongoing process over more than 10 years now. People have come to rely on the MyCiti Busses and left their cars at home.
Those busses have their own special lane so do not contribute to other traffic, except for how they changed the layout of intersections. But still. Thousands of people are commuting to work on these buses instead of using their vehicles.
Everyone working along those routes made the switch because the commute is both after and cheaper than driving.
So what that does to me is that I drive a service vehicle full of tools and a job to do, places to be. Hundreds of cars are now back on the road to get people to where they need to be. So yeah... traffic sucks!
In other news. I went for a proper run today. I took my 8-year-old son with and he ran everywhere with me, without stopping. For over 7 kilometers.
And all the while he just chatted to me! It was hilarious and I would have laughed if I were not huffing and puffing along. He really did just chat the whole long way and mostly I responded with an "uhuh" and an "ok". Once in a while I would ask a question or have a bit to say but it was brief. Oxygen needed to go through my lungs. Hahahaha!

Yeah, the strike has put some extra pressure on us since I need to take Justine to and from work now. Ugh.
Well done on the run. 7km is a decent one!
Thanks man!
