Wouldn't you like this in your backyard?

One of the things I really dislike about living in the city is that I have no view of anything worth looking at beyond my litle garden. I can see my neighbours' houses and a shopping centre or two, streets and cars, an oversized church and a little patch of land that hasn't been turned into profit making machine.

So I look at this photo and I wonder, who wouldn't like to see this at the end of every day when the sun sets?

South Africa... You are truly beautiful! Even if we can't always see your beauty in the city.

I wish everyone had their own personal sunset :)

Elephants & Cattle

Everyday I see so many beautiful photos of perfectly bred animals throughout South Africa. And although I don't know much about the actual breeding that goes on to get these animals where they are, I know an interesting picture when I see one.

Who would have known that there are people out there using elephants to herd cattle? I didn't! And I don't know the reason behind this either, they can't be easier to handle than horses... I'll see if I can find out what's going on here. Tried to find out, no reply... Bummer!

Small things that make me happy :-)
