In the early 70's, Ana's family moved to Johannesburg in South Africa. Ana was 8 years old and her brother was 3.
They lived in a three-bedroom flat in Johannesburg.
Her father was a land surveyor and her mother was a bank clerk.
Ana went to the Primary School near their house. Her brother went to the Nursery School.
'Why do the boys and girls at school speak a different language?' Ana asked her parents. 'I can't understand them!'
Soon the English language became her first language!

One Christmas holiday in particular, their father decided to surprise the family with a road trip to Cape Town.
The children were excited as they left early in the morning. They thought the trip was to Durban again, and they really enjoyed the lazy days in Amamzintoti.
'Can we go to the Dolphinarium again, this year?' asked Ana.
'We'll see!' said Dad.
To their surprise, they stopped at a Holiday Inn Hotel in the Valley of a Thousand Hills, before reaching Durban, and spent the night there.
The next day, they drove through Durban and Amamzintoti and continued south. They only stopped in East London, some 650 km south of Durban. There, they spent the second night.

At the end of the first week, they finally arrived in Cape Town. Driving in from the East, along one of the most scenic stretches of coast in the world, they encountered this series of mountains overlooking the Atlantic Ocean.
The children counted more than 12 peaks, but had no time to argue about it because, 30 minutes later they were amazed with the scenery they had in front of them - Table Mountain in its full magnificence.

During the Christmas holidays, at the end of the school year, the family always drove to Durban to spend two lovely weeks by the sea.
On their way, they made a few stops at amazing places such as the Giant's Castle Nature Reserve in the Drakensberg Mountains. They enjoyed the scenery and the wildlife very much.
Then they would drive down to Amamzintoti, 25 km south of Durban, where the rest of the holidays were spent enjoying the warm sea waters and lovely sunshine.
Ana and Pedro loved splashing around in the ocean pool at the local beach.

At Mossel Bay, the children enjoyed the story about the messages left by the portuguese explorers in a boot beneath a huge milkwood tree.

As the journey continued, they came closer to Cape Town. They were all quite excited as they passed Cape Agulhas where the Indian Ocean meets the Atlantic Ocean.

"The word «Agulhas» means «needles» a Portuguese reference to the fact that when it was named in the year 1500, the cape was about where magnetic declination was 0°; in other words, the longitude at which magnetic north and true north were the same."

It was such a sensation to be in one of the most beautiful cities in the world! And it is really beautiful - Table Mountain sitting relaxed, overlooking the city, in the middle of Lion's Head and Devil's Peak! What a sight!
The next day, they took the cable car to the top of Table Mountain. This mountain is flat on top, and when the clouds move in from behind, they fall over like a tablecloth. It is really amazing.
They explored the area during the next few days. They went to the beach and to the Cape of Good Hope. Then it was time to say goodbye to this beautiful city.
On their journey back home, they visited the Stellenbosch farms where some of the world's finest wines are produced.
While driving through the Karoo, on the way back home, the children slept for the most part.
Ana and Pedro enjoyed this surprise trip around South Africa with their parents, very much. They returned home full of exciting stories to tell their friends.
