The Mandela Museum

This is another post that's out of order.  We didn't have internet for so many days, and when we did, blogger isn't working particularly well for posting photos.  We want to post them so now we are trying to play catch-up while we can.

These are some photos from when we visited the Mandela Museum in Umthata.  They have turned a former colonial administration building into a new museum telling Mandela's life story.  They part I liked best about the museum was the rooms and rooms displaying the beautiful and meaningful gifts that Mandela received while he was president.  Everyone from school children to heads of state gave gifts that are displayed here and there was some amazing art.  I took photos of just a few examples, and I'm posting some of the art here.
