One of the fun things we did on holiday in the Cape Town area was to go back to places we'd previously visited 22 years earlier. I made up some 'then and now' collages, for fun, so thought I'd share just one of them with you.
We couldn't get a good set up to properly emulate the original photo due to too many tourists around us, so we had to compromise and live with the random lady on the right of the photo! At first glance, it looks like exactly the same sign, but on closer inspection, it's not. It is in the same place, though. The 2001 photo was taken by hubby, and features our son, me, Mhairi and John's dad. Ah, we were all so young then! Mhairi's boyfriend, Ed, is in the 2023 image.
It’s such fun to do that. You haven’t changed that much……..I imagine that sign takes some battering so no surprise some of it’s been replaced! Happy days!
What fun you must have had revisiting those places! I notice that the new sign is entirely in English. The old one had English at one end, and Afrikaans at the other.
@jamibann I'd be happy to do it for you, if you'd like- I can take it from here and upload it in my third album. Just let me know if you want me to give it a try.
