Cape Town burns

Von Tonner · 03-03-15, 10:02 AM

One of the worst fires in many years has hit beautiful Cape Town. Fire fighters have been called in from all over the country to help as the fires rage across the Cape Town south peninsula. Fire fighters recon it is going to take days to kill.

Unfortunatly, I know that scenario twice! I hope for the best and that there is no causalities.

Sorry to hear it. It's strange how a tragedy like this can breed such beautiful pictures.

Wild fires are difficult when they get big. Good luck and prayers for those who live there and my brothers and sisters fighting the fire.
