@artguru hahahaha!!! What a unique town indeed! I love how they did that with all the names... something truly "out of the box" lol. As for the "serious note" - I can totally relate... I live in Cape Town South Africa and we have had SEVERE water restrictions for the last year. We are almost at a point of having our taps turned off with water shedding.
It is a very sad sight here too, to see the farm lands drying up and dying. As you drive down streets in the suburbs now it is a very sad sight indeed! We got VERY little rain last Winter and are now moving into Summer and our summers are BLISTERING hot... which is also not a very comforting thought... but, trying to always remain positive and maybe we will have some summer rains too...
Lovely post and thanks for the giggle ;)
I'm also a South African and our eldest daughter lives in Bellville, Cape Town, so we worry about how she is coping.
Glad you mentioned the drought. Sometime earlier, a couple of months back, a person didn't believe what I was saying about South Africa having a bad drought when we got back from New Zealand. She said she had a friend in SA, who said the country was very green!
I think many people seem to have inaccurate information regarding the severity of things...
