Why Did Grandpa Go to Africa?

A 'New South Africa' was born in 1994 when Nelson Mandela was elected the first black President. In 1995 I stepped into this world in Johannesburg and was nearly stabbed to death on my first day and survived only to be robbed later. This true story takes you with me into this Dark Continent. We move from South Africa to Zambia then on to Kenya and finally Uganda.
