Opinion,untempered by fact,is ignorance.
There are some who do not fear death... for they are more afraid of not really living |

Ed, you will not believe what I did. Had some time to kill, so I visited the Pretoria zoo. Saw soome fine specimens, but could not bring any trophies home. I also visited the Voortrekker monument (a monument about our pioneers). That was a dissapointment.
So sorry, no pics this time.

The Voortrekker Monument a disappointment, huh? I never saw that except in photographs---very huge and enormous.....when did they build that?? I guess I could look it up in Wikipedia....
I did see a big "monument" to the Voortrekkers at Piet Retief once.....the oxen span and wagon on the hillside made out of many white rocks....

It was build around the late 1930's.
It is a huge monument/building outside Pretoria. Also has the whole oxwagon theme and Zulus with assegaais and the pioneers with their muskets.
The building is actually used as a center for arts, musical performances etc and is not a museum.
