Christmas in KwaZulu-Natal

Andrea Sander: “Christmas carols at Inchanga, KZN, with the magnificent steam locomotive Wesley. Thanks to Pierre Retief for the wonderful display.”

Such a magical scene…

Christmas in Gauteng

Festive made fun at the Mall of Africa. Shoppers have been delighted by the impressive lights. Mall of Africa says: “It’s always beautiful to see how many smiles come from meeting Hamley the bear ☺️☺️☺️” (Apparently “he doesn’t want to be alone, you’ll see his smile as soon as he is surrounded by Mall of Africa fans!”)

Christmas in the Western Cape

Exquisite. Helena Sousa (from Thru H’s I): “Cape Town has found the magic of the festive season! Bustling with tourists and locals alike, the shimmering tree makes it truly festive during the holidays. Wherever you may be, whatever you may do, wishing you a joyous Holiday Season and a New Year filled with prosperity and happiness…”
