Greenland is on my list.

I enjoyed Walvis Bay/Swakopmund, but am glad I only scheduled a few days there. It would get seriously dull if you planned a week-long vacation around the place. It only takes two days or so to take in the Skeleton Coast, do some sandboarding, Quad-Biking or Camel Riding in the desert, etc. Would highly recommend it as a side-jaunt from a Cape Town vacation, though. :-:

GC is currently digging trenches and laying pipe at LakeBrit (which, by the way, is now a dry lake).

Stone will be laid this afternoon.

Foundation will be delivered and set on Monday, assuming He Who Shall Not Be Named (inspector :eek:) passes the stone compaction this afternoon :rolleyes::rolleyes:. What a load of bollocks! This guy is a nightmare. And we have to deal with him for the framing and the plumbing too, and the final CO :td::rolleyes:

OH, still wanna come watch the foundation being set? I will not be there until mid-day-ish because I will be returning from my MR that morning, but I expect Mr.Brit will be there.

Maybe we need to schedule an IceHounds DO sometime in 2011, call it "Global Warming's last stand, ICE Hound DO 2011' ^

Olton Hall - do not move to Iowa - cows and corn, that's all there is there. Oh, and Grinnell University.

Is it pretty easy and cost effective to get there from CPT?

You can always build it in to your S. African reward redemption. Just make CPT an extended stopover en route to a couple days in WVB. SA serves WVB from both CPT and JNB.

or Dr. Scholl's Corn plasters .....:D:D
