The scenery looks great, but it would be even better with a few snowmen.

Didn't realise you got snow in South Africa. I feel so ignorant. Yay for decent rainfall and snow anyway :)

You are super correct about the 'yay' part. Snow is not an every day event here.. We do get a little bit in winter on the mountain ranges.
I was thinking about you whilst walking back from the shop .... I may want to commission a drawing .. will give it some more thought and let you know.

This is amazing @themagus! If you think of Africa, it's inevitable to think right away that the weather's gonna be hot. However, knowing that the Western Cape and Antarctica are "quite" close, it makes sense if there are snows every once in a while. 😃

Thanks for stopping by. Never mind .... we have very long very hot summers here. We have been experiencing a severe drought here for a few years and still have strict water restrictions.

Thanks for stopping by. Snow is quite rare here and only on the mountain tops generally. We also have very long, very hot summers here. We are a winter rainfall climate so no rain in summer.

Wicked cool, in every sense of the word! I'm especially enjoying your snow shots today, as it's currently 95F/35C (with a "real feel" of 101F/38C) in my neck of the woods. And if you remind me in February that I was appreciating snow today, I'll deny it. 😊
Hope the weather continues to provide you with blessings!

I know the feeling ... our summers have almost permanent temperatures up there in the late 30's celsius and they seem to go on for ever. Are you also a 'winter rainfall' region or do you at least get thunderstorms now and again to relieve the heat and dryness?

Waaait, wait, wait... it snows in South Africa? Why don't we have snow here in southern Brazil too? we're almost in the same latitude.
It's so cool, living and learning.

Hehe I was thinking the same as many others here! Really snow in South Africa!? I only know that country from the sunny images. show us more from SA covered in snow!
But what is it with the water restrictions and drought? How is the water management actually in SA?
