K is for Kalahari, one of my favourite places. Even though the Kalahari is a large region, the part I refer to here is in Namibia, close to the border with Botswana. K is also for Kudu, an African antelope and Kameeldoring (the Camel Thorn Tree).

Kudu bull and cow to the left. Not a great photo because it was taken from the back of a moving vehicle but we were very happy to see them.
K also stands for Kings Park and Botanical Garden, which is one of the world’s largest inner city parks. Situated on the bank of the Swan river it provides sweeping views of Perth, the Swan and Canning rivers and the Darling ranges (Perth hills).

K is also for kangaroo and kalamata olives which I love and grow in our garden.

Hoekom trek alle Afrikaners se oë so toe by die aanhoor van die woord Kalahari? Want dis so mooi daar 😀 Ek is jaloers op jou olyf-oes.

Net so! Dis wanneer ek Kalahari foto’s kyk dat ek regtig verlang. Ek hou vreeslik baie van Kalamata olywe. Die kinders lag vir my want ek bekyk elke loyf om te sien of dit reg is om gepluk te word of nie, sodat ek niks voortydig pluk en sodoende mors nie. Ek raak so opgewonde soos ‘n kind in ‘n lekkergoedwinkel wanneer die olywe reg is om gepluk te word!

Pragtige fotos en mooi K voorbeelde ook. Interessant die olywe. Ouens hier hou nogal daarvan om olywe te plant.

Baie dankie. Olyfbome is relatief maklik om te groei en onderhou – makliker as ander vrugtebome.

Het so agter gekom. My buurvrou het twee bome in potte gehad wat goed gedra het ook!

Heimwee… hoe beskryf ‘n mens dit in Engels? Deel van die woord se trefkrag lê in hoe dit klink.
