Greetings!
What a beautiful day!
On the road early to make the long drive between Knysna and Cape Town,
we got to see the south coast of the country. Several clear views of beach breaks from the top of hills
helped make my day, when we weren’t passing sheep, canola oil seed fields, and
a variety of high income communities built in the 1950’s once this coast had a
decent road to it. It is truly
amazing how this country can support such a disparity between the housing of
its people. While I understand that
apartheid was ended, segregation of residences has not.
When we reached the top of the valley overlooking Cape Town,
the views were spectacular. Four
million people wrapped around a large bay with a point extending all the way
out to one of the southern most points in Africa.
Descending into town, we topped that view off by driving up
to the mountain gondola taking visitors to the top of Table Mountain.
A distinct floral environment, and one
of the oldest rocks on the earth, it proclaims itself one of the seven natural
wonders of the world.
