Soweto/Apartheid Museum

Took a tour of Soweto (South West Township) and visited the Apartheid museum.  The highlight was Nelson Mandela's home.  The neighborhood is very vibrant.  I didn't realize this, but Soweto has middle and upper class housing, in addition to the slums.  Interesting tour, great museums.  If I had to do it again I would take the bike tour and stay at the B & B in Soweto.  The museum was very well done and I would recommend going there.  It took maybe 2-3 hours to get through it.
