Hallowe'en in Grahamstown

With globalization comes Hallowe’en in Grahamstown! I made myself a bat costume by fashioning wings out of a black umbrella (courtesy of Martha Stewart) and sewing them onto a black top, tying my hair into makeshift ears, and drawing a black mask on my face. Painted the “A for anarchy” symbol on a South African friend’s face and headed off together to a party at a Dutch and a German friend’s place. Not exactly South African, but loads of fun!
