  1. That's it for Cape Town, soon be checking out & driving 4-5 hours east, along coast, to parent's house in George, S.Africa, for family Xmas.
  2. http://twitpic.com/u205j - Nelson Mandela's tiny prison cell, preserved in Robben Island - now a museum to South Africa's dark (and still fa
  3. http://twitpic.com/u1zfe - Cape Town (Table Mountain in the middle) as seen from a Robben Island beach.
  4. http://twitpic.com/u1ywb - Me at the entrance to the Robben Island prison (one time prison of Nelson Mandela & other political prisoners).
  5. Woke up and it was raining in Cape Town this morning. Has stopped now & the sun is coming out. Already a very warm day again - no snow here!
  6. http://twitpic.com/twimq - Finally for today, as we couldn't be in London for our usual annual thing, we spent a bit of time in contemplatio
  7. http://twitpic.com/twi7c - Not only native wild penguins but today at Cape Peninsula I also saw quite a few equally native and wild baboons
  8. http://twitpic.com/twhqa - Can't be many places in the world you can see native wild Penguins and Baboons. Here's Cape Peninsula's penguins.
  9. @TMDWP I'm not a cricket fan, any tournaments are entirely coincidental! Just here for a family Christmas (and miss Doctor Who, apparently!)
  10. In a foreign country, with their own cuisine and culture. Time to visit the KFC for dinner! Well, I'm here for the sights, not the food..!
  11. @Legopolis Canada's like that too?! No wonder everyone thinks it's always cold! Wall to wall Who in the UK these days (especially this Xmas)
  12. @Legopolis @freyburg Clearly you've cracked Japan, then! I will educate the South Africans about Doctor Who and Who podcasts! It's our duty!
  13. @Legopolis As I recall, @freyburg, you didn't see much Who stuff in Japan. Same in South Africa. I've seen a few New Who DVDs, that's it.
  14. @freyburg Yes, Staggering Stories t-shirts will be broken out soon! Can't really wear the cap with it though - that would be going too far!
  15. @tdrury I don't look happy? Probably still haven't caught up on sleep! I am having a great time, though. Cape Town is a very nice city.
  16. http://twitpic.com/tr7y9 - Finally, for today, a picture of a Cape Town beach - it's been a very hot and sunny summer day (unlike the snowy
  17. http://twitpic.com/tr7dd - On top of Table Mountain today looking down at the cable car. It doesn't do justice to the scale of the landscape
  18. http://twitpic.com/tr70m - Me half way up Table Mountain in Cape Town this afternoon (on a cable car).
  19. @TonyGallichan The hover car only has a range of about 60 miles - a little short of the 5950 miles between Crawley and Cape Town!
  20. Down & safe! A hellish journey (every leg delayed, missed final connection...) Finally got to Cape Town. No sleep in 42 hours, until now..!
