The concert was held at the Lyric Theatre, Gold Reef City Casino. There is still a fairly strong resistance from people living north of Empire Road to cross to the south, and the sumptuous recreation of a Victorian theatre, for it really is Johannesburg’s most beautiful theatre, was not completely full.

Kruger National Park 2012

 

 

It was an impromptu decision to visit Kruger National Park this past weekend.  It still feels unreal that I left the Kruger Park almost 18 years ago.  It was wonderful to see some of the old staff but even more rewarding to be remembered.  The highlight was undoubtedly the rain that fell and the amazing animals we saw.  Kruger National Park will always be in my blood… 

Canola Fields - Western Cape Province.

I realise that I might have gone a little overboard with the large number of photos I took of the Canola fields.  But what can I say, I am hooked on the contrasting colours.
  

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Gariep Dam

The Gariep Dam (formerly known as the Hendrik Verwoerd Dam) forms the largest storage reservoir on South Africa with a total storage of approximately 5 500 million m³ and a surface area of more than 370 km² when full. The dam is the central structure of the original Orange River Project which involves the supply of water to parts of the Vaal, Fish and Sundays catchments as well as to irrigation along the Orange river itself.
