Sun, Sea, Sailing and Surf...

.
BONNES VACANCES..!
.
Off to enjoy sunsets like this in Mauritius
.
Hope you're all enjoying a great summer

- wherever you are,

whatever you're doing..!
.
Despite all my best intentions I never did find the free time to regularly
update my blog and catch up with all your delightful blogs
- I've been far too busy off-line -
I have every intention of catching up, once and for all,
when I get back...

Why oh Why...

.
"...do I love Africa?
.

Because we are all related.

All Africans are brothers and sisters

Biologically,

wherever you are from in Africa, we are related.

In Africa if you are from the same house

- you are related,

from the same village
.
- you are related;

from the same country

- you are related.

Even from the same regional grouping like west,
.
east, north and southern Africa

- we are related

- as long as you are an African,

we are all related.

We refer to each other as brother and sister in Africa.

We do not have cousin or nieces

- all we have are brothers and sisters.

That is why I love Africa..."
