66_Mission Statement
_In his comment on my South African Photo Dump, good fan of The Scene Trick clued us in to the fact that we pop up on google if you start to search for “the digital sc-” or so. I tested it out and sure enough, when you search for “The Digital Scene,” we are the first hit, out of about 250,000 sites. Thank you all for visiting frequently and sending us to the top. The next step is to get it so that we come up as the first hit if you search for “Awesomeness.”
_In light of all that, I have re-written our about page to cover our origins, our purpose and our goals more comprehensively. You can read it here.
_Thanks again for all of your support, and keep on contributing.

_Consider this the cherry on top of my travel log posts, as well as the first pictures to be seen on The Scene. Here it is, the South African photo dump.
Some views around campus:

Life at Rhodes is cheap boxed wine:

Welcome to Grahamstown:

Where I went on vacation: scenic Mosselbaai:

And the cheesy window display in Mosselbaai:

And a picture for Snap (my feet by one of Mosselbaai’s many rocky tidal pools):

Cape Town from the N2:

Longstreet, Cape Town:

The bar at Longstreet Backpackers, where I was staying:

A typical shanty town outside of Cape Town:

Hermanus. Looks nice, right?

Think again (yes, that is a Great White):

And finally, a pretty picture to end it all. Sunrise from my residence’s front door:
