Thanks Janie. I look longlingly at this and other photos of home - all I have around me here in the city is concrete and dust! I hope you are wrapped up warmly. (((Hugs))) Jo
SA's golden scenes will wait for you - know you'll look hard and find the beauty of Khartoum. New profile pic!! Is the draping very warm to wear? Verlang na jou, vriendin...
Ha Ida! Ek het gedink of jy of Lynda van Tanzanie sal die nuwe profiel foto eerste raaksien... Although the material is of a woven type, being draped is not at all warm. Most of the ladies here still have a bun, chignon or ponytail under theirs. You know me: shortly shorn! So I feel cool. I bought this particular one here in Khartoum last year. I have other BEAUTIFUL ones given me by my dear friend, Fazila (Pick & Win, Marquard) and she and her daughter taught me how to drape them. Ek sal 'n pos hieroor moet doen. My email is nog nie mooi aan die gang nie dus is ek SO bly om jou hier te sien - ek verlang so baie en wil graag jou fotos van die rit sien. Hoop jy be-oog om 'n foto-blog te begin... Ek sal jou grootste "fan" wees. Liefjou. Jo xxx

Hi Gena! Good to see you again. Yes I arrived yesterday early hours of Saturday morning - after leaving home in the Free State in the early morning of Thursday! But that's Africa travel for you. Thanks for visiting. I'll pop across to you shortly. (((Hugs))) Jo
Beautiful scene of the countryside in South Africa... I know you enjoy being with hubby--but I know how much you must being in gorgeous South Africa with your family for these 3 months.
Glad you got a new birdie to replace the one who had died.
Thanks Eileen. I'll be over to visit your lovely blog soon...

A roadside scene of the countryside on the day I left South Africa
Beautiful composed photo of a summery scene. Considering our current weather, the sight of golden summer is most welcome.
