Some photos from first day in South Africa. The Oranjezicht City Market, the four South African Nobel laureates, a replica of the Ghanaian golden stool designating Asante kings, and the kudu (South African antelope) I had for dinner-the restaurant says it is ethically sourced.

My wife and I have arrived in Cape Town, South Africa to tour the southern part of the country. There is a lot of questionable info about SA coming to us by those with an agenda. We are hoping to see some of the reality for ourselves. But, to start, a view of the city's landmark.
