Tuesday March 17th - Nathan

St Patrick's Day in South Africa. I can say for certain that there is no St Patrick's Day parade in CapeTown or Johannesburg (and probably not anywhere in South Africa). Of course our Irish contingent (and those who become Irish on St Paddy's day)  celebrated the day when possible.
  Even the non-irish enjoyed the day as we toured the southern cape of Africa-the southern most tip of the continent where the Atlantic meets the Indian ocean.  The views from the peaks were tremendous as you stand atop the cape near the lighthouse - identifying an important historical point. .
