You Are Here – South Africa
Not the real picture yet, but the screenshot from the official preview video found in Facebook, which announces the release of You Are Here – South Africa mug. I don’t see any date mentioned, so my assumption it will be available starting this weekend. I am expecting better pics pretty soon.
Did you like this mug?
I see that no info has been provided on this mug, so here are interesting things you can see on the it.
Starting off, we have a King Protea, which is the national flower of South Africa. Following onto the right, we have the Big Five- Rhino, Buffalo, Elephant, Lion and Leopard. Next, we have what looks like a vineyard- grape growing for wine is very important in the the Cape region of South Africa. The yellow tree appears to be a baobab, which you can find in the far north of the country. The depictions are set against a silhouette of Table Mountain in Cape Town. There is a shark- we find them all along the South African coastline but shark cage diving with Great Whites is popular in the Cape. The bridge is called the Nelson Mandela Bridge and is found in Johannesburg. The trumpet is known locally as a “vuvuzela”- it is very popular at local soccer games. A mine headgear is next, paying homage to Johannesburg’s (especially, but also the rest of the country’s) mining heritage- gold, diamonds, platinum- we mine a lot of metals and minerals in South Africa. Then yellow arc could represent a mine dump- many of which can be seen in Johannesburg. Lastly, a Blue Crane- South Africa’s national bird.
