A STUDY OF ANCIENT EGYPT
Ancient Egypt --- a subject which has always interested me, even from a very young age. The information we learn at school just skims the surface, and even what is taught in the Bible, gives us a mere glimpse into this very real ancient world. I remember many times going to the museum and staring at the beautifully coloured objects that have been discovered in the Egyptian tombs, even the everyday objects, such as combs or plates, hold my attention as I remember that these very items were physically and actually used every day, thousands of years ago. Even this study probably will just touch the surface of the very deep well of history. A culture of Master and Slave, even as we have had Upper-class and Lower-class. How the Pharaohs treated these slaves and who the slaves were is a massive subject all of its own. The clothes that were worn, who wore them and what they were made of we can, not only read about, but also can see on the walls of the tombs of the Pharaohs. The beautiful jewellery, so colourful, each piece meaning something, we have even copied in our time. The food of the rich, the food of the poor, very different and how the food affected the Egyptians health. The Gods and Goddesses which/who affected every aspect of life back then --- rich and poor! If I were to write down my own knowledge of Ancient Egypt, it would seem like a page compared to the thousands of books that we can read and learn from today. For such a massive subject, where do I start? Which God/Goddess? Which Pharaoh? Which part of Egypt? This study of Ancient Egypt is not meant to be “The Complete History of Ancient Egypt,” just my own “study of Ancient Egypt.” I hope you enjoy reading it as much as I have enjoyed researching it.

How to get to Gaborone from Anywhere
Introduction Once a small and dusty one-horse town, Gaborone has developed into a spectacle of a city in recent years. While it is Botswana's capital, there is nothing fast-paced about this city which moves at a languid pace and no one is in a hurry to get anywhere. It is a fantastic city to visit if you would like to learn more about the timelessness of rural Africa, learn local history and culture and savour the years of tradition in its cooking.

Where 2 Oceans Meet
Cape of Storms, Cape of Good Hope, the Cape. All names given to the Cape Peninsula in South Africa. Cape of Storms because it can sometimes be a dangerous place to sail around, causing many shipwrecks. Cape of Good Hope because the sailors who made it into Table Bay were glad to be alive! These days it is just called the Cape by people who live there.

The Gambia: Introduction
The Gambia is a little country on the western coast of Africa. Although The Gambia has a coastline on the Atlantic Ocean, Senegal's state completely encloses the nation on another three sides. Therefore, Gambia is bordered by Senegal in the north, east, and south. The Gambia straddles the Gambia River extending from the Atlantic Ocean eastward. The Gambia is the second smallest African nation after Seychelles. Banjul, a port town, is the capital of The Gambia and the biggest city. Its location at the Gambia River's mouth has made the port the administrative and economic center of the nation.
