Cape Town - colonial architecture, amazing geography, marine biology
Soweto - where the end of Apartheid "began", South Africa's most famous township
Drakensberg - the escarpment, one of 40 places Steve Davey, the British travel photographer, says you must see before you die
Victoria Falls - apparently makes Niagra seem like a silly trickle
The Lion King at Monte Casino - apparently a killer version of the Broadway musical (the girls are going tonight)
Ride an elephant - easily done locally
Pilanesberg - again
Kruger National Park - how about a park the size of England full of African animals?
Sossusvlei - also on Steve Davey's list
Okavango Delta - beauty in Botswana, just a bit north of here. Did I mention that between 40 and 60% of people in Botswana have HIV - very sad
Durban - think San Diego, but full of fourth generation Indians
Lesotho - the country inside our country. Actually we'll probably just see the escarpment
Swaziland - why not? It's so close.

See the world, I say. It's much bigger outside of Utah. Or so I hear!
I had no I dea any of those places existed before you moved there. Thanks for letting us live vicariously through you!
Again, thanks for the post and, as Jen said, for letting us see the world through you. I hope you will make it to all of these places. I just told Katie that our friend's the Snarrs are coming there in October and all of these places are on their itinerary. Be sure and post when you visit each place or do each thing! Love Mom-Gayle
