Welcome to Pretoria!

I experienced my first trip to Pretoria ... at a conference of the Physiological Society of Southern Africa. We stayed near the Pretoria University campus, which was nice, but our hotel was straight from the 1960s and hadn't changed a bit since!! This is the view from our door (which didn't lock!)



My trip to Pretoria triggered some memories in Maine of songs about Pretoria ...

We are marching to Pretoria
Pretoria, Pretoria,
We are marching to Pretoria
Pretoria (Hurrah!)

Quiet Day ...


At the Old Trinity Church they were having a quiet day ... though I wonder how it worked when people brought their packed lunches ... quiet lunch with the church brigade?!?!
