Two years

Today is our two-year anniversary. This brings home the hard part about this trip---wishing I were together with Jessica. Luckily I get to visit the week before July 4 so we can see each other and have some fun.

Also on this day is the anniversary of the 1976 Soweto uprising in which 566 children were killed. Youth Day is a national holiday so I was able to sleep late. There was a big memorial gathering in Johannesburg with an address by new President Jacob Zuma.

And as if you needed any other reasons to mark today's date, June 16, 1904 is "Bloomsday," the day described in Joyce's Ulysses.

Have a nice day.
