Nelspruit, Mpumalanga, South Africa

It was really lucky that we got to Nelspruit at the time we did, because a big festival was going on. Of course we had to go to it! The line to get into the festival was about a block long, and we were at the very end of it. I guess we were just some lucky ducks that day, because a lady drove up by us and said "Would you like these wristbands? I don't need them." She gave us 3 purple wristbands, and 3 gray ones. We weren't sure what the wristbands were for, so momma put on a purple wristband, and Jess and I put on gray ones. We gave the extra to the people by us, then headed to the front of the line. The wristbands got us into the festival! In the festival, we tried potatoes on a stick. The people had a special machine that cut the potato in a spiral. After that, they fried the potatoe on a stick, and it was done! You could pick which ever seasoning you wanted. They were delicious! I tried cheddar cheese flavor. It tasted almost exactly like cheddar pringles, except it was much saltier. They are now my favorite food!
