The big round in front is our new stadium for the Soccer world games (tournament) in June. It is just one of quite a few built around South Africa, and is now finished, bar for a few more little things on the outside (gardens)

We live about 20 minutes drive away from it.
Hope you like.
Hugs and God bless

Your pic is so beautiful!.I Did enjoy all the soccer and the excitement of the world cup.
I can blow the vuvuzela like a Pro and did so for every goal scored by every team and for any world cup advert that came on the T.V.I miss 'WAVE YOUR FLAG'. Can you?

Dear Marietta, WOW what a stunning shot of a beautiful city. I bet you can't wait for the Soccer in June. I love the coast line it's so clean. Also that stunning mountain in the background.

Love and blessings Chris

Thank you Chris, and yes, we love our "land". Our coastlines are usually very white (the sand) too, and we have fantastic weather just about the whole year.
The soccer !!! well, lets say my hubby and boys are very excited. LOL

Thank you Heather, glad you liked it, and your husband is correct. Cape Town is the Mother City. Was founded by the Dutch, when Jan van Riebeeck landed here in their three sailboats.

thank you Baerbel, we have many more beautifull places, but like anywhere we are also struggling with keeping the air clean. Such a pity.
