Nice little country, even if it does have an absolute monarch who chooses new brides each year from among thousands of topless virgins who dance for him. There was a bit of a problem when I was there because the king had kidnapped a school girl to be his next wife. You can read and see more about my time in Swaziland here. I was here on my own after a very long stright run from Livingstone, Zambia. It was very nice to sleep. I was in Mbabane for a couple days in October 2002.
