Gwen, that is fantastic! Nelson Mandela is blessed to have had such a long, amazing life and to have done such extraordinary things with it, but now he's even more blessed to have our gorgeous Afrikaans Aphrodite there to celebrate with him!  Have a great time!

Good God, why doesn't someone just put Amy Winehouse out of her misery?
Didn't look like Mr Mandela approved of her set. *lol*
She was just making up words. *rolls eyes*

Hej Gwen!
I hope you had a flask of tea to keep you warm from that nasty wind and drizzle!
Well done you for "being there" - hope you enjoyed the buzz for the memorable occasion!
Cheers,
Vim

Difficult to put into words all the emotions I felt....
...... proud, humbled, angry, sad but most of all TOTAL admiration for this Wonderful Man!!!
Madiba is a Saint in my eyes and one of my heroes and I am so privileged to have been in his presence 
Viva Mandela!!!
Thanks for all your sweet messages
