After hours ...

Today was a holiday in the USA, Labour Day, something South African labour has been taking every day for the past month! This, however, meant that there was a day to explore before school starts tomorrow. My housemate, Basil, and I went up the 'Incline' today. Which, is a 3 mile hike straight up the Rockies. Vertical! See the photos and make up your own mind. The air is already thin up here, but another mile up and it gets ridiculous - they breed us tough in South Africa, so I pushed through and the view was worth it ...

At the top at last - someone turned off the oxygen supply!
