One benefit of getting up early to miss the Cape Town traffic is watching the sun rise over the Hottentots Holland.  Rush hour is spreading earlier and earlier though.  "Leaving early" (to get a  sub 30 minute run through to Cape Town from beyond the boerewors curtain used to mean a pre-7am start 10 years ago - now, that requires pre 5.45am!)

Time to build that home office.

2007-05-29 - Ryan informs me that the Pretoria -> JHB rush hour starts at 05h15.  All I have to say is that if you insist on living in Pretoria and working in JHB, you only have yourself to blame! ;)

ah Suspect, my friend, I think the Digital Highway and remote office will be a much more effective solution... but then I'm a telco type, so I would! ;)

Great picture. I am cursed with living in Table View and have the same problem getting into the CBD. Almost on a monthly basis I need to leave a few minutes earlier to avoid the hectic traffic. On the bright side, I drive in overlooking Table Mountain everyday. Subsequently, I started a blog about my travels (www.mytableviewtraffic.za.net) and maybe some day my voice will reach the right people ann they will build huge new highways to town. Who knows.....
