Cape Town

last Dec-Jan my family took a trip to visit family in Cape Town and Europe. Before Australia my family lived in South Africa for 3 generations, after moving to Europe and Australia. Prior to living in South Africa, my family lived in Jewish Shtetls in Lithuania.. I find it really fascinating because the Lithuanian Jewish community had different laws from regular Lithuanians and lived quite traditional lives.
Here are some photos from my Cape Town trip:

    ahh! this looks like a fun vacation.. not to be a nerd but when I read that your family used to live in shtetls in Lithuania I kinda freaked out. Last year I took a course called "Jews, Judaism, and Modernity" and I learned all about shtetls! ^-^
