Such a great camera. This was in 2012 at the little airport outside Beaufort West that was a bnb at the time. Hence <a href="https://instagram.com/withoutaleaf">@withoutaleaf</a> hanging out on the air traffic control tower. When we were next there a couple years ago the runway was in action again training Chinese pilots for their indentured servitude in China&rsquo;s commercial aviation industry. Worse jobs to be enslaved to, I guess.</p> https://photoblog-a3l.pages.dev/posts/2018-12-24-this-place-has-some-amazing/ Mon, 24 Dec 2018 12:39:29 +0000 https://photoblog-a3l.pages.dev/posts/2018-12-24-this-place-has-some-amazing/ <p>This place has some amazing biltong, droëwors, and pies. Plus we’re getting lamb chops. You don’t find butcheries like this in Cape Town.</p> https://photoblog-a3l.pages.dev/posts/2018-12-23-snap-policecars-fortuner-hilux-toyota/ Sun, 23 Dec 2018 13:23:15 +0000 https://photoblog-a3l.pages.dev/posts/2018-12-23-snap-policecars-fortuner-hilux-toyota/ <p>Snap.</p> https://photoblog-a3l.pages.dev/posts/2017-12-22-whats-going-in-your-holiday/ Fri, 22 Dec 2017 19:08:42 +0000 https://photoblog-a3l.pages.dev/posts/2017-12-22-whats-going-in-your-holiday/ <p>What’s going in your holiday guitar bag? Last year I packed it and left it like a fool. <a href="https://instagram.com/chocklit_thunda">@chocklit_thunda</a> lent me one in Joburg even though we’d never previously met. 🙌 This year though I get to take my own beloved Alvarez parlour and a bunch of things to work on. The blues book has stuff by Furry Lewis and Frank Stokes. <a href="https://instagram.com/sad_ivan">@sad_ivan</a> gave it to me, the star. The Cohen book is also from the ‘60s and was my ma’s songbook. And, if I start to get REALLY ambitious there’s Chet Atkins.</p> https://photoblog-a3l.pages.dev/posts/2017-09-08-spring-flowers-yellow-sanparks-westerncape/ Fri, 08 Sep 2017 18:43:49 +0000 https://photoblog-a3l.pages.dev/posts/2017-09-08-spring-flowers-yellow-sanparks-westerncape/ https://photoblog-a3l.pages.dev/posts/2017-01-05-capetown-emptying-out-into-gauteng/ Thu, 05 Jan 2017 10:18:13 +0000 https://photoblog-a3l.pages.dev/posts/2017-01-05-capetown-emptying-out-into-gauteng/ <p>#capetown emptying out into #gauteng at #vacation&rsquo;s end.</p> https://photoblog-a3l.pages.dev/posts/2017-01-04-when-your-hotel-has-a/ Wed, 04 Jan 2017 13:58:13 +0000 https://photoblog-a3l.pages.dev/posts/2017-01-04-when-your-hotel-has-a/ <p>When your #hotel has a runway, but only 25MB free #wifi?</p> https://photoblog-a3l.pages.dev/posts/2017-01-04-strange-scenes-at-the-gasstation/ Wed, 04 Jan 2017 12:49:31 +0000 https://photoblog-a3l.pages.dev/posts/2017-01-04-strange-scenes-at-the-gasstation/ <p>#strange scenes at the #gasstation.
