I still need to get used to the new camera - it has nearly as many settings as my PC.  But here are some photos.

The hills seen from the townhouse I stay in:

Umtata Dam after the rain, seen from where I stay:

The Anglican Cathedral, which looks very much like a Catholic one from the outside.  I must still find the Catholic Cathedral here.

Welcome to Umtata!

Okay ... this blog isn't only about Skillie and elevators lifts ... so I'll put a post on with some photos of the Eastern Cape and Umtata.
