South Africa, a beach Coriolistic Anachronisms - A Vancouver Blog
Hi, I'm your friendly Coriolibot (as in "ro-bot").
It would seem Vince (shame on him) hasn't posted a fresh entry in a couple of days, so I am here to keep you entertained no matter what!
The post below is a random entry that we hope you haven't read before. Regular current entries follow. Enjoy, and come back soon for brand new posts!
Note: this random entry is served on a per-visit basis and will change if you reload the page. It will also not show up on regular RSS, Feedburner and Twitter feeds.

It was summertime by 33 degrees south latitude and 18 degrees east longitude, but on that day, a howling wind
from the southeast sprayed the coastline with a winter coating. Sand flew, horizontal and abrasive, and the ocean was like an endless field of whitecaps, fluffy white flowers on a bed of blue grass. So the dogs played in the sand and had a blast while we got sand-blasted. But there was more in the air then just salt and sand. There was... something. And Cézanne would have loved the light.
And then there was fish & chips. The dogs got a chip each, but that’s a secret.

We could call them les rase-mottes? Les ventre-a-pattes? Les ventres-a-terre? »
