Well we almost made it to Canadian "soil" this weekend as the HMRS Toronto was docked at the waterfront here. We ended up talking to some of the staff while we ate at the Spur restaurant and they filled us in on what was happening. There was a ship from the US, Holland, Portugal and a couple of others as well. That was an impressive site. I'm thinking I should have had my camera to take pictures.

At least today I took the camera when we went to "Googs" or Gugulethu one of the communities created during apartheid to house the black people. The houses were built around 1975 I was told.
The leaves on the Oak trees have returned as the weather is much nicer. It feels like Manitoba in mid May. Spring lasts for one month here and then it is summertime until May.
