This amused me.

Looks good doesn't it? It's really not.

ha makhotso, near mohale's hoek.

The town committee of Ha Mokhotso, a village we visited where Irish Aid is funding a project to provide 560 people with clean water and sanitation. It was part of an advance visit before the Oireachtas Foreign Affairs Committee arrived.

car crash, outside mohale's hoek.

We passed this crash the night before, minutes after it happened. The (probably speeding) car struck a slow moving tractor killing the tractor driver. The ambulance on the scene had no medic or medical supplies. Only a stretcher to transport the dying. The Chinese passenger, tugged arm from leg to the ambulance by a cast of hundreds, was badly injured. His fellow driver was horrifically injured and probably didn't make it as far as the hospital in Mohale's Hoek.

On the corner of Maseru's main central junction on Kingsway, this photo looks across Lancer's Road towards the Alliance Francaise (Left), the Ooh La La Café (to the left of it) and Lancer's Inn (in that car park on the right).
