Project Resurrection


I can't say much at this point in time but the wheels of Project Resurrection have started gaining momentum with phone calls back and forth between Johannesburg and Cape Town. Lobola has exchanged hands for a broken Anna, soon she will join Sophia then the project can start flying. Lobola is an African tradition, when a man's family negotiates on behalf of a man a price to pay for the right to marry a woman from the respective family. I find the word lobola very interesting as it is close to an Italian word for bubble, la bolla. Here is photo of Anna's dial showing only 2,487km on her odometer. I can feel the air thicken with anticipation.
