small in this lovely car, ha, ha. We had a whale of a time taking back roads into the country to a small town called Phelidelphia. It is so small that you are through it before you even enter it, but it is so pretty. Marthie took some lovely photo's of the coffee shop (outside) under the trees, where there were all kinds of little annimals. There was a beautifull cat who came to say good morning, visitors with some lovely little dogs, and the cute Rooster (I think we call them feather feet chickens) with his family of hens, and even a little chick following its mother.
She even stopped the car in the middle of knowwhere to take a photo of me talking to my son on the Cell phone in the car.There is also a lovely photo of our beautifull landmark Table mountain, taken from a hill in the beautifull country side.
To our other cutie friends from Cape Town, next time I think we must all go together, I never laughed so much as we did. It was fantastic.
Thank you Marthie.
Love and Hugs to all. God bless

Y know we actually have 11 months of the year sunshine. We had a lot of rain up in Johannesburg but we cant complain. You must come out for a visit.
12613Oh what a great day. And after the outing we went to a light industrial area in Brackenfell and bought meters of Perquale(material to make duvets)and even find the Seralon thread factory and we even invaded that too.Marietta thank you for your company

Hi Denice:
Where in Vancouver do you live? I am in Surrey, maybe we are neighbours.

Hi Denice we are in Cape Town, South Africa, and we love it. We do not know Snow down here. It is even nice and sunny in winter, although it can rain quite hard in winter.

Jerrib, I am right in Vancouver proper but in the wide web world we really are neighbours.
Marietta I had thought you might be in South Africa but then the photos look like parts of the America mid-west.
