The Mandela Statue

(Retrospective post)

A mandatory stop outside the Victor Verster Prison to capture photos of and with a statue of Nelson Mandela. Victor Verster was the last prison placement for Mandela and the statue depicts how he was dressed and appeared, fist raised, when finally he was released after 27 years of imprisonment. This was not us in the photograph but a group who had arrived at the spot before us. I think they were members of an Australian orchestra (but this may be wrong).
