Unusual day

Hello leap day.  Hello you with your unusualness and rareness and 'see you only once every 4 year'-ness.  I woke up this morning thinking about how I'm a rule follower.  Maybe today is a day to do something unusual and outside of my ordinariness and my rule-follower reliable ways.  Maybe just 1 thing that is out of character for me.  Maybe today.

I am in beautiful Cape Town for a few days.  When I arrived yesterday, a cold front was expected to hit the Cape.

This is the 'table cloth' on Table Mountain; it just drapes the top edge of the mountain

and then the cold front arrived; this is the view from my hotel room last night

the same view this morning - beautifully clear

my gorgeous huge room at the Vineyard Hotel in Pinelands




what?  oh nothing... just my shoe collection for a short 3 day trip to Cape Town.  LOL!!  I took less shoes on a 3 week trip to Italy!

Go have yourself an unusual leap day.
