My neighbour started making this mosaic table top a couple of years and has now finished it. Lovely fishy theme, so appropriate for our waterfront location.
We were assigned a table setting group assignment in one of my classes. This was what one of the groups produced (not mine).

I completely dismantled 2 pallets to get the size I wanted. Then I planed and sanded them and, I applied a white cottage cheese-based paint with natural pigments and then a layer of the same paint but with blue. Casters under the table, 2 drawers still with wooden pallet wood and voila.
J'ai désossé complètement 2 palettes pour en obtenir une aux dimensions que je voulais. J'ai ensuite tout raboté et poncé puis, j'ai appliqué une peinture blanche à base de fromage blanc et de pigments naturels et ensuite une couche de la même peinture mais avec du bleu. Des roulettes sous la table, 2 tiroirs toujours en bois de palette et le tour est joué.
I'm dancing on top of the picnic table in my shiny burgundy dress. I have to be careful where I place my feet to avoid falling off, but luckily the table is strong and quite large so it's not really an issue. Let's twist and turn and have a bit of fun! It's so nice to make my petticoat and skirt rustle as I move and feel them gently caressing my legs. What a delight to be feminine in a pretty dress and feel totally free outside in such beautiful surroundings.
Wieder mit dem Sigma bei offen Blende gemacht( 30/1,4EX DC/HSM ), muss ja den Kommunionstisch meiner kleinen ablichten, denn morgen wird ein streßiger Tag für den Vater und den Fotografen.
Wünsche Euch allen noch ein schönes restliches Wochenende.
Also made with the Sigma at open aperture (30 / 1.4 EX DC HSM), must photograph the communion table from my little daughter, for tomorrow will be a more stressful day for the father and the photographer.
Wish you all a nice rest of weekend.
Möge das Licht mit Euch sein. May the light be with you
Cape Town is a real beauty. It ranks with Hong Kong, Vancouver, San Francisco and Rio as one of the world's cities with the most spectacular natural settings, and Table Mountain can take much of the credit for that. The city sits in its lap.
- "Table Mountain is in the unique position of being the only terrestrial feature to give its name to a constellation - Mesa, meaning The Table, which is seen in the Southern Hemisphere, below Orion, around midnight in mid-July. It was named by the French astronomer Nicolas de Lacaille during his stay at the Cape in the mid-1700s."
- The '12 Disciples' can be seen stretching away to the left here.
- Again, I was taken to see Cape Point on this visit (the tip of the Cape of Good Hope where the Atlantic and Indian oceans meet), past which flies the Flying Dutchman on its own schedule, and where the seabed is covered in wrecks. (I'll upload a photo) We arrived in the afternoon and stayed until just after sunset. The Point is at a height on a plateau or bluff that extends and curves SE, and from above its cliffs great views are had east, south and west out over both oceans.
- There were wild Chacma baboons there right by the road at the Point. capepoint.co.za/cape-of-primates-cape-points-chacma-baboons/
- And we saw a replica of a 'padrão' at the Cape, a limestone pillar surmounted by a cross erected there by the Portuguese on their voyages to signify Portuguese and Christian sovereignty (I'd see something similar at Cape Cross in Namibia a couple of weeks later), to serve as a navigational aid ("when lined up, [this and another padrão commemorating Bartolomeu Dias and his arrival in 1488] point to Whittle Rock, a large, permanently submerged shipping hazard in False Bay" [Wikipedia]), and to commemorate Vasco de Gama, the first European explorer to sail @ the Cape and on to India in 1497. capepoint.co.za/the-cape-of-pioneers/ The replica dates from 1965.
- I spent the better part of a day touring 'the Castle of Good Hope', aka the 'Kasteel de Goede Hoop', "a bastion fort built in the 17th cent. ... considered the best-preserved example of a Dutch East India Co. fort" anywhere. Built by the Co. /b/ 1666 & 1679, it's also the oldest existing bldg. in the country. "It replaced an earlier fort ... built from clay and timber by Jan van Riebeeck upon his arrival at the Cape in 1652." Capetown had been founded at that time as "a replenishment station for ships plying the treacherous coast @ the Cape on long voyages between the Netherlands and the Dutch East Indies (Indonesia). In 1664, tensions between Great Britain and the Netherlands rose amid rumours of war. Commander Zacharias Wagenaer was instructed by Commissioner Isbrand Goske to build a pentagonal fortress out of stone. The first stone was laid on Jan. 2, 1666. ... In 1682, the gated entry replaced the old entrance, which had faced the sea. A bell tower, situated over the main entrance, was built in 1684. The original bell, the oldest in South Africa, was cast in Amsterdam in 1697, weighs just over 300 kg.s. ... [and] could be heard 10 km.s away. The fortress housed a church, bakery, various workshops, living quarters, shops, and cells," etc.
- "During the 2nd Boer War (1899–1902), part of the castle was used as a prison, and the former cells remain to this day. Fritz Joubert Duquesne, later known as the man who killed Kitchener, and the leader of the Duquesne Spy Ring, was one of its better-known inmates. The walls of the castle were very thick, but night after night, Duquesne dug at the cement @ the stones with an iron spoon. He had nearly escaped one night, but a large stone slipped and pinned him in his tunnel. The next morning, a guard found him unconscious but alive." (all Wikipedia) Today the Castle houses 'the Castle Military Museum' and is the scene of ceremonial activities by traditional Cape Regiments.
- I best remember the inside of a wooden door to one of the old, narrow prison cells on which the profile of a sailing ship had been carved by a prisoner. (I'll scan and upload a photo). commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Castle_of_Good_Hope_carve...

- There are museums in the former city hall and some old colonial houses (from 1701, 1755 & 1839) that I would've toured if I'd had more time (and if I'd done my homework), and the old 'South African museum', with its stuffed animals, etc. I didn't take a wine tour day-trip to Stellenbosch, Paarl (home to the largest wine co-op anywhere), or Franschhoek (centre of a wine region founded by Huguenots who arrived in the 1690s, and home to a Huguenot memorial museum), with their Cape dutch houses on wine estates. (I'm not big on wine tours.) But I would've liked to have seen the huge, brutalist and photogenic 'Afrikaanse Taal monument' to the Afrikaans language above Paarl (1975, but straight out of Star Trek: www.sa-venues.com/attractionswc/afrikaanse-taal-monument.htm www.reddit.com/r/brutalism/comments/6a0q4y/afrikaans_lang... ) if I'd known about it. The BIG miss wasn't a thing yet, or not for tourists, a 'Great White Shark cage dive'. !! I earned my scuba license only the summer before at Sharm-el-Sheikh, so I would've been game. "South Africa [had] passed national legislation in '91 [only 1 year earlier,] protecting the white shark (Carcharodon carcharias) from all fishing exploitation." www.oceans-research.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/03/johnso... The cape has the highest concentration of Great whites anywhere, in particular at 'shark alley' near Dyer Island, home to @ 60,000 cape fur seals. (There are only @ 3,500 Great whites world-wide). This was filmed there.: www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qzxy3GtSzt0
- I did a fair bit of walking @ Capetown. I recall the harbours, incl. the 'Victoria and Albert waterfront' (where I took the next photo of a Cape fur seal on a platform by the pier).
- I had a discussion with a local who ran a sushi restaurant in town or had some connection to it, just as I was about to head out to hitch north up the N7. I expressed interest (I love sushi, who doesn't?) but was mindful of my budget. He said "You'll never find better sushi for the price anywhere else" (i.e. in the world) and he seemed sincere. A miss.
A player has come off the field complaining of cramp and tightness in his hamstring. A club official makes use of a nearby picnic table to help stretch the affected leg muscles.

With the space constraints of a small boat I didn't want to carry an extra table for the cockpit. Here the cabin table is mounted in the cockpit for outdoor meals.
From every vantage Table Mountain is very imposing.

Today is the letter U and we are looking at what's under the table in my daughter's kitchen. This is actually the table set my parents bought back in the early 80s when I was in high school. There's a matching hutch, but it is in another room.

I was walking around in Monterey, California and I saw this little table set up so cutely. Then there's that creepy guy's face between the vase and the bottle. -____-
