POSTCARDS FROM PRETORIA



Pretoria was my home town for 9 years. This city is also called Jacaranda City due to the thousands of Jacaranda trees that are blooming in September and October. Union Building is a land mark of the Pretoria, at Mandela's time you could walk almost in to his office but now it is closed for visitors. This was the place that Mandela had his inauguration in 1994 and I was there too, it was one of those moments that I really remember as a high light of my life...So huge and historical and a moment that the whole world was following...
