Happy glow

When we arrived in Cape Town for New Year's we were not quite done with Christmas. We I had been disappointed with the Christmas light displays in Joburg and had heard tell of a suburb of Cape Town called Bothasig where they supposedly still decorated the houses with excess. A newspaper article I read said, "It has become a tradition for homes in the area to drip with elaborate festive-light displays." That's what I wanted!

So we drove to Bothasig after dark to see the dripping lights. We drove up and down the streets of the little hamlet and this is all we came up with ...

Not exactly dripping.

Oh well back to Cape Town for a much more reserved display.

This guy was the craziest of the bunch with a lit up Christmas ball on top of his 4X4.

Maybe Durban?
