Pretoria, South Africa

We spent half a day in Pretoria at the end of our trip before leaving South Africa for home. We met with a friend of Jeffrey's who took us on a quick guided tour of this beautiful city.

Pretoria is famous for its Jacaranda trees, and we were taken to an area with streets lined with these trees in full bloom:

Then, we drove up to the top of a hill to get a panoramic view of Pretoria and the surrounding areas when we came across a group of zebras happily grazing on the hillside:
