Places the Tour Buses Don't Go In Cape Town

If this is where you start life from what chance do you have?

It is in places like this that the kids come live ... whatever this is, it is better than where they were ... Many come from the rural areas and many more come from the war zones in the north ... Many have lost their parents either through war or AIDs/HIV ... there are children raising children...

The International Airport is a stones throw from here ... there is no running water ... no electicity ... no heat or warmth ... Just a place to exist ... and that is all ... alcohol and drug addiction run rampid ... and children are bartered for and abused for the sake of the lost older generation

I refer to this as the front door to hell ... my hosts on the day that these pics were taken would not stop at the side of the road so I could get a more detailed look ... for fear of being car jacked and shot ... it was 2 in the afternoon ...
