taken at the (famous!) cape of good hope. i was quite excited to be there - having heard about it in history class for years and years. i'm not sure i believed it really existed. it was kind of like meeting a famous person except, i suspect, more enjoyable. for me and the cape. unless famous people like other people tramping all over them and taking lots of photos. actually, hmmm...

now, the eagle-eyed amongst you will have spotted a significant post number approaching. see at the top of the photo there? today's post is number nine hundred and ninety nine which would make the next one a whopping one thousand. and just to warn you, i've something extra special (and slightly risqué) lined up for the next post. and i'm saying this now so i don't chicken out.
