There is something magical about that special time in the morning when the sun rises bright announcing a new day and again in the evening when it disappears below the horizon. Living in Atlanta, I struggle to find many places I can truly enjoy the beauty of a the sunrise and sunset. In April, I spent two weeks traveling across the country of South Africa. The trip started in Cape Town, then enjoyed a visit to the Winelands, a drive on the Garden Route to Port Elizabeth and ended in Kruger National Park. No matter where we were, the sunrises and sunsets were spectacular!
This blog post is a tribute to the beauty and magic of the many different sunrises and sunsets I experienced over a two week span.
Enjoy!
