High and dry.


This ship is on rather than in the harbour grounds, but for some reason is on the dock. I just thought it was rather pretty, and worth a photo.

Phone home.

No problem ET, if you don't have a phone-card, you can still use coins.

The back of beyond.

The Pavillion shopping center is a convenient meeting point for people who live on opposite ends of the greater Durban area, since it's approximately midway between Durban and Pinetown, with very easy access from the highway. Coming from Umhlanga to the north, or Toti to the south, if you follow the right signs at Spagetti Junction, then next offramp is the Pavillion. You can't miss it. This however, is the back of this mall, seen from the road less travelled.

Below, on the hill this community live in RDP houses. The Reconstruction and Development Programme aimed to provide low cost housing to replace the shacks which many people called home.

Tongue in cheek.

I just love people with a good sense of humour. Please note that no ex-husbands were harmed in the taking of this picture.

Horse Drinking.

This rather interesting piece of driftwood in the garden lookes like a horse drinking at the trough.

Green trimmed building.

While travelling along Smith Street (as a passenger), this building stood out as a new old building. The achitecture and trimmings suggest it has been there for quite some time, but the colours say it's recently been spruced up. The center of Durban has seen many changes in the last 10 years.

Old Building.

One of the pretty older buildings on the edge of the CBD. Do wish they'd look after it a little better.
