For something different try Sellenbosch.

The 24 life-size wildlife sculptures that have been gracing the streets of Stellenbosch in aid of the World Wildlife Fund, have received such an enthusiastic response from the general public that the Stellenbosch Municipality has asked world-renowned sculptor Dylan Lewis to extend his outdoor exhibition to October 2009.

Kenya Airways in partnership with Air Botswana will launch flights to Gaborone in September this year. The thrice weekly flights will operate on Tuesdays, Fridays and Saturdays under a code share arrangement with Air Botswana.

The flowers are truly out on the West Coast and I believe it is a sight to behold.  Last year and the year before that was also amazing and the patch work of colours is something you have to see for yourself.  Mostly white and yellow flowers at the moment and mostly around the National Park.  Why not take a weekend off and come and see it for yourself.  If you want help with accommodation let me know. 

Egypt: 

One of the most captivating places to visit in Africa is the ancient Pyramids & Sphinx located just south of Cairo. Over 4,000 years old, the three Al Giza pyramids (Khufu, Khephren, and Khafre) are impressive in size alone. The iconic Great Sphinx, with its human head and lion body, sits majestically before the pyramids.
