Protea - National flower of South Africa, taken at the Botanical Gardens in Cape Town.

Someone asked about the temperatures. Well, in Cape Town it was about 25C (77F); in Jo'burg it was about 30C (86F); Rustenburg 32C (90F); today we're in Pretoria they said it's in the mid 90's. Fortunately our B&B in Pretoria had a small pool and we took a dip to cool off.
