The rants will be going on hiatus as of tomorrow. My long-suffering wife and I – – along with two close friends – – are headed off to Namibia and South Africa for a safari and then some time in the wine region of western South Africa. We will return home on September 11 after a scheduled 16.5-hour flight from Capetown, South Africa to Washington DC. 😒
Maybe I will be in shape to write by September 13th – – maybe not. I will be back on the air on or before Monday September 16th. See you all then…
Stay safe and stay well, everyone …
If you can the Springbok play NZ All Blacks on Sept 7th in Capetown if you are looking for sports event to go with your trip.
Rob:
We were in Capetown the night of the game. The entire city was dressed in green and gold on the day of the game and everyone was focused on the game while it was underway. It was the South African version of Super Bowl Sunday and the mood was just short of elation when the Springboks won the game.
