They say that dolphins are reincarnated surfers. One has to make some religious assumptions in order to believe this divination, but after watching dolphins surf with grace, expertise and enthusiasm, conversion is a possibility.

As I continued my travels across South Africa , I learned that weed wasn't sold by weight as it was at home. Grams, eights, quarters and even ounces don't exist in South Africa . Instead, you asked for what the weed comes packaged in. For example, in Cape Town I bought a "bankie." Being the smallest and most common quantity, the three-quarter ounce bank coin bag was the most popular and convenient for travellers. For most, that amount of dope was enormous and more than sufficient to satisfy one's habits. I was going through bankies as if they were going out of style.
