With two long weekends in a row and a short week in between, with only three working days, it been a manic time, trying to get through all my work.
Last weekend Suzie-K and I did a spontaneous trip to the Mountain Zebra National Park. What was just going to be a day visit turned into an overnight stay, when we secured a chalet as a result of a cancellation. Unless you book well in advance accommodation in the Park is not available over a long weekend.
But for that we would never have seen the sky come down to earth.............
This picture was taken three years ago looking in the same direction at the endless vista of rolling hills that disappeared when the sky came down.
Two mountain zebras having a drink in a pool, reflecting their images and the sky. These rare animals may at a first glance look like their cousins, the burchell's zebra, but they are quite different with denser stripes, a brown muzzle, a dewlap and slightly larger ears.
More pictures from around the world can be seen at the Skywatch site.
