This morning we spent a while taking in the most serene views from atop the Kwasheleni Tower here in the iSimangaliso Wetland Park, from where you can see the Indian Ocean to the east, Lake Saint Lucia in the west, and the wild forests and grasslands teaming with wildlife in between.

It amuses me to be sitting somewhere where I can count the number of plants I can see and then look at your photos of so many it would be difficult to count even a small section of them. Of course I’m in a suburb, not out in the desert where there are quite a lot more plants but not green or this many. Neither is better or worse, but they’re certainly different!

The desert certainly has a very special charm of its own, Janet, and those hardy plants are often spectacularly beautiful!
Dis pragtig Dries! Ek is skoon verlore in die skoonheid!
Ons het soveel keer die afgelope week daaroor gesels, Dina. Daar is bitter min ander plekke wat by iSimangaliso in die algemeen en Cape Vidal spesifiek kan kers vashou.
You are going to keep us enthralled for months with your photographs from your summer holidays. I am looking forward to them.
Thank you very much, Anne. We really had a special time!
Pragtig
Absoluut asemrowend, Ineke. Ek wens die foto kon die geluide en die reuke wat met die prentjies saamgaan ook oordra.
Ja beslis. Ek het juis n vrou wat n ruiter is en wat haar perd een dag per week laat vertel wat gebeur. Sy het juis n stukkie video opgesit van waar sy bo-op perd ry en wys hoe dit in die sneeu en die woud lyk. Mens hoor die perd se loop en asemhaling daarby. Baie oulik.

Wonderlik! Dankie vir die deel, Ineke!
