Hout Bay Visit

[droffarc]

Final part of a tetralogy.

The road to/from Hout bay is lined (for the most part) with trees.
It comprises of the M63 (Hout bay main road), (which becomes) Rhodes Drive (named after Cecil John Rhodes - an important historical person in this part of the world). This drive passes the famous Kirstenbosch botanical gardens to eventually join with the M3 (Union Ave.) which is usually traffically congested.
So coming from the relative tranquility of Hout Bay you hit the afternoon rush hour traffic and your mood is shattered. (No I did not have any accidents.)
I hope you enjoyed this tetralogy as much as I enjoyed (mostly)making it.

Thanks for posting; that is my home town (well, Hout Bay, anyway), and it really is that pretty, yet with a few problems of it's own, like....anywhere!

Lots of baboons - daily - on the stretch of Rhodes Drive from Constantia Nek circle, for about 2 - 3 km's down - you can usually see the Baboon monitors, doing their best to herd the baboons away from houses and backyards, with MIXED results!

Well done on the video!

It's like keeping to the straight and narrow, as long as the cars do it too.

"Tuna Town" ... nice to see my dorp from a different perspective... world class fishery on our doorstep and even better winding roads for working your tyres.. properly
