S Africa, Botswana, Zimbabwe

History overwhelms you here...
breathtaking day on the mountain , just a hint of fog, gentle breeze, crystal clear views - apparently quite rare- I find a spot to sit quite and reflect with the Cape of Good Hope looming in the distance ... This is an amazing country . I have fallen in love. I can see and feel why people are so passionate here. I can not even begin to understand the complexities. (via iPhone from Table Mt., Cape Town )

Safari was beyond words and I think may take many months to unfold before I can begin to describe the experience. Botswana is "blossoming" as a country aspiring to all that Africa can become given a task, a dream to realize and people who believe in the possibilities. Zimbabwe still suffers from a corrupt dictator who believes in controlling everything and leaving nothing for the people except bitterness and want for shelter and food...sad how contrasting neighbors can be...
