For this week's #AlphabetChallenge on the subject of roads, this was one of my favourite roads, from Swellendam to the De Hoop nature reserve in South Africa. We saw just about no-one else on the road, but lots of different animals!

A3: I make a point of looking for Roman ruins wherever I go, but one of my favourites is in my home town. This is the ancient Roman baths in Bath (the upper level is Victorian but the base is Roman...)
