It’s been enlightening and slightly amusing reading and hearing news from Cape Town today. We’re not that far away – a couple of hundred kilometres tops – and yet they seem to have been struggling with grey, wet weather there. We’ve been living it up with blue skies for most of the day, albeit with a rather dramatic (read severe gale, gusting storm force) northwester in attendance as well.
I digitally sucked all the colour out of that so as not to upset the folks back home too much. But the sea has been wild today. I did get some pics on the “big” camera, but I don’t have the means to easily upload them here, so that’ll have to wait till we return home tomorrow.
I’m not sure how good they will be anyway, as I was constantly fighting to keep the sea spray off the lens. And constantly losing too.
After the calm…
