Nuestra amiga trotamundos Alina L´Ami ya se ha embarcado en otra aventura. Primero con billete de avión, luego sin él y luego con otro nuevo tuvo que hacer frente a las ilusiones y desilusiones de la vida y vivir los contrastes típicos de los viajes y las personas con las que se cruza uno en el camino. En el caso de Alina primero fueron los enervados empleados de la línea aérea holandesa KLM y luego los oficiales de seguridad todavía mucho más enervados y amargados del aeropuerto de Ámsterdam Schiphol. Y al llegar a Port Elisabeth fue sorprendida y embargada por la calurosa bienvenida que le dieron sus nuevos amigos africanos, la cual Alina clasificó de la manera siguiente en su e-mail: "Es que es una amistad como si fuese un ramo de flores silvestres; colorida, fresca, natural sin segundas intenciones, pero absolutamente intensa y cautivadora.
Así que es completamente lógico entonces que le ha parecido muy adecuado lo que decía el salvamanteles:
"The best things in life aren´t things" (Las mejores cosas de la vida no son cosas)
¡Muy bonito, muy filosófico y absolutamente cierto!
El hotel The Boardwalk es precioso, un auténtico palacio. Es como ser Alicia en el País de las Maravillas durante unos días, mezclado con Disney World.
