Vancouver City Council Take Note

Today we went to Robberg Nature Reserve in Plettenberg Bay. Think of a loaf of bread. The park sits on top of the loaf and tiny paths are carved into the sides going around and down. At the base is the ocean. The pathways are made of rocks largely , so in parts you scramble up and down. All paths force you to cling to the loaf. One step off and well..... Now I have vertigo so this may as well have been a morning bungee jumping for the total terror I endured! At the peak of this loaf you could look down and see beautiful shores with no people at all on them. How perfect. Clearly a housing community backed onto the shores. In other words these are private ocean front properties. So how do the houses prevent  the great unwashed from treading on their preserve? They erect electrified fences with cameras. The signs promise an armed response to trespassers. I bet Vancouver City didn’t think of this for keeping unwanted off ocean shores.😁

It is hard to see but at the top of this fence is electrical wiring. Now Dad told me his story of how angry their driver got when he saw blacks in the ocean. He was here 25 years ago.
