So yesterday (Saturday) after paying our cable bill the old fashioned way (you have to go into a store), we took an opportunity to visit a local park called Groenkloof Nature Reserve. It's only a 5 minute drive from our house. We opted for a short hike since we arrived at the reserve completely unprepared for a midday hike in full sun with no sunscreen, hats or water. I have no idea what we were thinking, but all turned out okay...including some great shots of wildlife.
After surviving our hike relatively un-burned and a little parched, we drove to downtown Pretoria, also known as the CBD (central business district) to see the Union Buildings. While not allowed inside these parliamentary buildings, you are allowed to walk around the beautifully manicured gardens.
Enjoy a few pictures of our adventures yesterday!
I love the zoom on our camera.

There were 3 of these antelopes (not sure what kind) right along the path. It was a bit unnerving since they were quite large, but as we walked by...they edged away.

The road in the background going up hill leads to our house. At the bottom of the hill on the left (more or less) is Andrew's office.
