Rugby

I went to a rugby match on Saturday. University of Stellenbosch vs. University of Pretoria. I've never attended a rugby game before, but I have to say rugby is an entertaining sport -- everybody seems to be chasing the rugby ball at all times and at times it's completely chaotic. Here's a couple of pictures I snapped at that game. Our team crushed Pretoria 50-32!




Quite a few fans showed up to witness the event:


There's no such thing as a rugby game without cheerleaders ;-)

License plates in SA

I know I have at least two family members who have always been quite fascinated by license plates, and I think they will like this post ;-) Personally I think the South African license plates are the coolest ever. So I grabbed my camera and snapped a few photos!

The first one is from the Eastern Cape. I like this one because it has an elephant in the background:



Here's one from the Free State, which has a Cheetah on it:


Here's one from the Limpopo province:


Here's one from the busy Gauteng province:


Here's one from Northern Cape with the springbok animal:


Unfortunately the license plates in the Western Cape have no cool background, they're just plain white. You can choose your own number/text though, like this guy did (Bergnoi is probably his/her last name):
