The Springboks bring Webb Ellis home
posted by Paul
Tens of thousands of people thronged the streets of Cape Town today to welcome the Springboks home after winning international rugby's great prize, the William Webb Ellis cup. Kerry-Anne and I took a few hours off work to experience the festive atmosphere and catch a few snaps of these South African heroes.
Well done and welcome home boys!
Thanks to Cafe Zorina on 172 Loop Street; they kindly allowed us onto their balcony to take these photos and plied us with drinks and some of the best authentic samoosas I've had. Click here to see more of today's photos.

Where have they been since the final?
Wow!! What a lot of people. It must've been quite an atmosphere! I'm sorry I missed the Jo'burg leg.
Hasn't the vibe been great? I happened upon you via meeyauw's daily photo, glad i did, in the immortal words of Arnie... I'll be BAAHCK. BTW another weekly group that might interest you is Skywatch Friday, I see you have some very suitable stuff here, those spotty clouds over the moon are EPIC!
curly >> The Boks have been touring South Africa for the last week, paying respect to their supporters. As well as catching up with their wives and girlfriends I reckon ;)
jenty >> Pitty you missed it - CT was really awesome.
