Hi! SA friends!
I am just a French historian preparing a paper to be read, next July, at PMB campus. Congratulation! You have a very nice and interesting website. It really makes one feel like catching the first aircraft and fly over!
I was last at Saldanha in 2002, when I read a paper at the Military/Navy Academy. I spent there a wonderfull day. I sincerely hope that your country (which, in my heart is also mine) goes better and better again.
Very kind regards.

There was possibly too much planned and I'd like to have had more time to do the same amount of stuff, but that was my schedule not yours. The whale trip was the best..."

Attakwas, Oudtshoorn, Klein Karoo
There is a wonderful sense of history as you trace the route that botanist WJ Burchell pioneered with an ox-wagon sled on March 21, 1841 while collecting samples for later study in London. One can easily imagine his awe at the scenic beauty of the Little Karoo as you share his enjoyment of the challenges of a route that was discovered only at the end of 1988 when a fire exposed the original tracks.
