South Africa 1999

During the month of December 1999, I was invited to join that world famous Disamaniac, Wally Orchard on a short tramp around the Cape Town - Hermanus areas of South Africa.  It was a very enjoyable sojourn to an area that has long been considered the heart of Disa country.  While being way too short, I did get a chance to see some sights and visit with some of the big names synonymous with Disa growing in South Africa.  Reports on the individual operations are linked below.  Hope you enjoy them.
