I know a lot of you are not even really sure exactly South Africa is, or perhaps you have heard about Nelson Mandela and apartheid and blah blah blah, to be honest, as interesting as our history is and as depressing our current political state is, we love it here!

Here are just a few pics why, and why you need to visit if you ever get the opportunity! (not to mention the unlimited riding space!)

I stay on the East coast the sub tropical side :)















 
It does look nice there. My aunt is now in Africa right now and she loves it.

x2 on what kind of fish that is.
 
good stuff Blaner, always like when you post these kind if pics
 
Beautiful pictures, what type of fish is it that you are catching?

These are lichia amia, or Garrick, we call them Leerie's (Short for Leervis, which means leather fish - they have tough skin!) They are easily caught in estuaries as well as ocean, they are related to Kingfish and give an awesome fight and thrills especially on the surface!

Thanks, I have a heap more, but I was just testing the waters to see if the forum is still open to such things like it used to be. :)
