Lesotho is the highest country in the world . Separated from South Africa by the Drakensberg mountains, known in Zulu as Ukhuhlamba , which means the barrier of spears .

This is one of the poorest country's in the world . There are no tarred roads and they use horses to travel around .

The bushmen(Nguni tribes men ) travel great distances , with their cattle , looking for grazing , and sleep out in the open , eating lizards and mice for nourishment .

Time has stood still here .

Stop and listen , you hear no cars , planes , trains , just the odd whistel from the Bushmen hearding their cattle .

Lesotho is the country , Besotho are the citizens , and Sesotho is the language .They are decendents from the Nguni tribes , who took refuge in these mountains from the Zulu's , Boer and British .

A young Besotho boy , wearing my hat . Canadian eh!
