@anneke, I concur wholeheartedly. Just yesterday I had the opportunity to drive through the heart of Pretoria. I took some pictures of church square with Oom Paul. Things are so much different from thirty years ago, and many things sadden me. However, my heart was uplifted, because the "buzz" is still the same. Pretoria is still a beloved city, and South Africa is my country. Homeland, heartland.
