Today we went to the famous Old Biscuit Mill! It is a world market that is held every Saturday from 8am-2pm. You can buy fresh produce, pastries, breakfast foods, sandwiches, ice cream, clothes, trinkets, and about anything else you could think of. We got crepes and omelets for breakfast. It was delicious! It was the most unique place to spend a Saturday morning. We can't wait to go back! Later in the evening we all went to a rugby game. We all were decked out in Stormers jerseys and blue and white face paint. Before the game they planned a "braai" for us which is just a South African grill out. We then headed into the game to watch the South African Stormers play the Australian Waratahs. Rugby is the most intense sport I have ever watched. I thought football was violent, but rugby takes it to a whole new level. Luckily we had some locals that sat near us and explained the basics. When we asked why the players didn't wear helmets or pads, like they do in football, the local replied, "it's rugby, they're men..." The Stormers beat the Waratahs 19-13.
