My mom and I escaped to the country and spent a few days in majestic Jonkershoek valley. Not quite the Canadian Rockies but pretty darn close. Ok, no elk, bears or glacier fed lakes but the gorgeous mountains eased our pain a bit and reminded us that one needn't go off on excruciatingly long flights to experience a bit of awe and wonder.
