All is calm

By 6000 | 6000 | April 5, 2010

Remember Easter in 2007? No – me neither. But I found a nice sunset picture from back then that I thought might be appropriate for a quick quota photo this evening. It’s quiet, serene, beautiful: calm. South Africa has made it safely and quietly through two days since the death of Eugene Terre’Blanche. It’s a good start. [...]

Back in Cape Town

By 6000 | 6000 | September 20, 2009

Following an amazingly relaxing weekend away at the 5-star Fancourt resort in George, we’re back in Cape Town after a completely exhausting 38 minute flight back along the southern Cape coast.

Thinned Quota Sunsets

By 6000 | 6000 | March 4, 2009

No time, no time. And off to play football, so a quick pair of South African sunsets: one from the parkade at Cape Town International Airport and the other from the veld in the Madikwe Game Reserve in the North West Province, both thinned down for your delectation (and so my sidebar doesn’t go AWOL).
