Walk on the Common...

The Rondebosch Common is close to my parents' house and I have spent many many hours on this special place. It is a National Monument and the site of a military camp ground and rubbish dump dating from the 1800s. It also contains the critically endangered Cape Flats Sand Fynbos and numerous small insects, fauna and flora. We went for a walk with my Mom here on Wednesday, 15th December - after I had paid a socially-distanced visit to my brother and his girlfriend. :)

And purple flowers, too!
