As much as we love the country we travel to, both husband Pieter and I do love nature!
So whenever we have a chance, we admire the flowers and things of natural beauty.
Beautiful Proteas in the garden... Africa's famous export flower!
En route to the mushroom farm in Tongaat KwaZulu-Natal the road was lined with Canna lilies and also you can see the blooming Flamboyant trees with their red blossoms.

Guess this one was near the mushroom farm...
Kaffirboom S. Africa Erythrina caffra Coral Tree
Aloe Candelabra S. Africa that we saw near Joburg where we also saw Baboons eat... near a huge dam.
Guess Pieter tried to capture the Weaver bird's nest but also a Bougainvillea is seen here.
