Out of the Jurisdiction: Design Quarter

I spent some time one recent morning in Johannesburg's Design Quarter.

Cordelia works in sales for a high end furniture store.  She has worked there more than ten years,
except that last year she left to do clinical work in the field of HIV and AIDS.

Steven works in security in the Design Quarter.  His colorful green and red tie 

and hat band are worn only during the Christmas holiday season.

Michelle was on a post from my May visit to Joburg.  She works in a lovely store featuring wine accessories.  Michelle wants eventually to run her own floral business, but her store is moving into a larger space and she has been given a promotion, so for now she is happy there.

Blessing helps customers carry their purchases to their cars.  I have done this blog for five-and-a-half-years, and Blessing probably was probably the happiest to have his photo taken of any subject so far.

Ashley was riding an "EZwheels" to a sporting goods store in the Design Quarter.  It is charged just like a laptop, and the rider guides it with subtle foot pressure, kind of like a very small Segway.  Cool.
