I like the way they ran the flooring up one wall, makes me think of Fred Astaire or Gene Kelly.

It's a really interesting room. I've never seen a layout like that, and the decor is wild.

The mysterious first floor???
Americans always make floor #1 as the lobby/ground floor but SA is like most European countries and G is Ground. We accidendaly hit the button for #1 and this is what we got... a sheet of plywood. Apparently no one goes to the first floor here... |

This morning it was birds... I went to a nearby bird refuge with the big lenses; the 800mm and the 100-400mm. Here are 4 out takes. Not many intersting migratory birds yet, these are mostly stay at home birds.

I went to the top of Table Mountain today on the cable car. I never did that before and I felt like a real tourist. It was colder then shit up there and really windy, it's about 3050 meters above sea level.

That sure doesn't look like 3,000 meters - maybe they meant 3,000 feet?

You're rignt, about 3040 feet. Here's the real news... I got up at 1:30 to pee pee and looked out the window and the mountain was up in flames. Apparently there was a fire somehwere that got out of control and now they've had a huge fire storm that was pretty spectacular to watch. I used my 12 x binoculars and you could see flames going up a few hundred feet in the air. I'm a few miles away and the fire covered a third of the mountain. Glad we got to go up there because now I imagine it will be closed for awhile. |
