Morning, Chaps.

If you didn’t tune in 2oceansvibe Radio this morning, then you missed a cracker. Make sure you hit the podcast when it comes out.

In any event, you have an opportunity to redeem yourself and prove once more that you’re worthy of the Vibe.

Cape Town is hosting the Ubuntu Festival this weekend (no, NOT the OpenSource software). What is the Ubuntu Festival, you ask? Well, as one might reasonably assume, it’s a festival that celebrates the principles of Ubuntu, namely community, respect, stoked vibes and the fellowship of humankind.

At least that’s my interpretation, anyhow.

BUT MOST IMPORTANTLY: Charly’s Bakery is spicing the vibe up for us on Sunday 18th July, Mandela Day.

Jacqui Biess, and her lovely daughters Alex, Daniella and Roche of Charly’s Bakery, are calling on all Capetonians to join them on a walk through our beautiful city to rediscover our streets and celebrate the life of the Grand Nelson, as we like to call him.

Here’s an appeal straight from Jacqui and the gang:

Our planned route starts off at St George’s Cathedral, moves along St George’s mall, and links up with the bridge which crosses over Buitengracht street, which crosses over onto Somerset road and then past the Cape Quarter into Green Point.

So please join us from 12-2 at St George’s Cathedral, bring your friends and families and anyone else who would like to join, and show your support for peace and human rights as we walk the Fan Walk.

Let us not close our hearts and our homes to our people. We ALL screamed our lungs out for Africa & all Africans and let the tears roll as we saw Ghana lose to Uruguay. Let us hold onto Africa proudly saying “These are OUR people!”

Our Tata has shown us what it means to be free and to be able to live without fear of being who you are. He did it for 67 years, we can do it for 67 minutes.

To celebrate what Madiba has inspired in our nation, we are inviting people to join us for a Fan Walk for Peace & Unity in order to say NO to further xenophobic violence.

That’s a cool vibe, guys. Check out the Facebook page, here. See you there.
