A friend i was visiting there (capetown) asked me if i was up for a dive to get some crays before breakfast. "Sure i said...where abouts ? "
"down under the rocks at the seal colony" he replied...:uhoh
He went alone...only one thing hangs out at a seal take-away in the southern ocean.

Thanks Gus. The beaches I showed have a lot warmer water than Cape Town (which is probably the same as Perth in your valley). I'd stay with you out of the water at the seal colony - all those great white thingies :uhoh
Nice to see that you've made a jump from STF to Dgrin. In the past, I noticed that you were from good ol' SA so I thought I'd just mention that I am as well. Immigrated in '86 but it still feels like yesterday...especially when I see your beach pics ...lekke! I love the 3rd one (Swartvlei), but it's Umhlanga that gets me - my mom's from Durban. Any more?

Hello Kevin,
Thanks for looking. Got tired of the bickering on STF, so very glad to have found Dgrin.
Will put some more beach pics on my Smugmug site for you soon! Just to make you more homesick, just had some American guests here for late lunch and I made a venison potjie - it was luverly (may post some pics for Andy!)
Making my way around....
.
My folks are in Atlanta, Georgia. I just spent 4 years at med school in Manhattan, NY, and relocated this week to San Antonio, Tx for residency. A fair amount of territory covered so far, eh? And seeing that it's lunch time here in Texas, I'd love some of that potjie! (and any biltong that might be going lonely )
Brings back memories, I used to travel to SA on business and would stay in Umhlanga Rocks when in the Durban area.
I'd like an excuse to go back. SA is one of my favorite countries and I had the chance to visit most of the large cities and some of the game reserves as well. Great food and plenty of Castle Lager - must be good

Congrats on completing med school, and luck with the residency
You're never going to find lonely biltong :hotcake

I'm also dying to get a chance to get to a game reserve to try out my new equipment! (Personally have gone off Castle - now Windhoek! :slurp)
