Spring Garden
Luckily, the spring weather has been very good.
I took a few photographs in my garden to cheer myself up and thought I would share a few of them.
The tulips have finished now but, various other items are bursting into bud.
The apple and pear trees have been covered in blossom, so they are filling me with optimism for a bumper crop in the coming months.
My clematis plant had grown so heavy it pulled over the almond tree it was growing through a few years ago! I have left it, as the tree was beyond saving, and the flowers on the clematis are a treat in early Spring.
Hoping for a long, warm and sunny summer.

Living in South Africa
Arriving for the first time and as a well-travelled individual, the first thing I noticed is that it looked remarkably familiar...but different. This is the same kind of initial impression I had when I first visited Australia and New Zealand. The common theme here of course is that these countries are all part of the Commonwealth and part of their legacies are very similar indeed.
Security and Violence in South Africa are well-documented topics on the worldwide news. The first drive away from the airport revealed a landscape with houses and heavy electric fencing, a very unusual sight.

A hell of a trip!
Most of my trips starts with some reasonable planning; you have to identify the best flight, seats, airports, connection times, hotels, etc. The main idea is to be prepared for any surprise.
BUT…
