If you refresh the blog I hope you will see a picture of Beatrice as the blog header. Seems to be working for me and not Gordon!!
Beautiful, hot and sunny. A lovely visit to the Kirstenbosch Botanical Gardens just outside Cape Town. The gardens are quite dry this year as they are experiencing a water shortage. Lovely mountainous backdrop –
Pensive thoughts whilst studying information on the African banana tree which fruits once then dies! Not much of a life.
Cool blue of the Agapantha flower –
Then a lovely orange breasted sunbird –
Then a cheeky common waxbill –
This is the best way to cool off a very hot car. Thank goodness for material seat covering –
Then home for a well earned swim and just to show I am here!! –
The backdrop to the pool is the back of table mountain showing the cable car terminus and one of the gondolas –
View of Signal Hill as the sun is going down –
Ok. Another great day. See you soon.
