Sorry to hear the buildings are crumbling - are you sure it is not the paint peeling. The construction of those buildings was pretty solid. And BTW if you were were there before the “rains”, the lawn would be brown. We have a dry winter. The indigenous trees will blossom but everything stays brown until it rains and then you fight your way through a jungle. Even in good times, people didn’t waste water on lawns - unless they were required for cricket or something like that.

Good post though. It seems the spirit of Zimbabwe is alive and well.

And any Zimbo’s reading this, I’m running a poll for diasporans on when we think we will get home. http://scotchcart.wordpress.com
