Drumming in the New Year
Drumming in the New Year

I came across this video clip taken some years ago with a Dutch group spending New Year at the Overseers Cottage on Table Mountain - a lesson in rhythm from the older generation. So funny.

From the top of Swartkop on day 2 of the Hoerikwaggo Trail. Stunning panorama showing the extent of the recent fires, from Muizenberg Peak to Silvermine and Chapmans Peak. Unfortunately this section of the trail will be closed for the immediate future. Alternate routes and accommodation are available by arrangement.
