The island in the background is Robben Island, the place they had Mandela locked up for 18 out of 27 years.

What you think?  Nothing in USA made the list.  Thinking Grand Canyon could have had a shot.  What else?

  1. Thanks for the update. Beautiful location and photos. Behave while your there, I’m not coming to break you out if end up on that island. Water looks beautiful, but to cold to swim from prison to shore.
