The theme for The Women's Humanity Walk this year was Uniting Cape Town in Faith...
Picture
....and it got off to an early start at the Bo-Kaap - under the watchful eye of Table Mountain.
Picture
Early arrivals got the Schotschekloof Community Centre, warmed up - thanks Beryl - and wired up for sound - thanks Luyanda of Selective Hearing.
Picture
....till very soon the crowds had gathered.
Picture
Everyone was a VIP, but it was a special honour to have Cape Town City Mayor Patricia de Lille with us.....
Picture
....so the Mayor and Marlene delivered powerful words, and songs....
Picture
....and there were prayers and blessings by women faith leaders from SAFFI South African Faith and Family Institute - with sign interpretation by Nombulelo.
Picture
And then we were on our way....
Picture
Kari marshaled the willing City marshals.....
Picture
....while those travelling in special style, courtesy Cape Town Side Car Adventures got buckled up.....
Picture
....and some in need of wheels, brought their own!
Picture
Especial thanks to the Bonteheuwel Walking Ladies who carried our flag with a song in their hearts.....
Picture
....and the biker gals took the lead around St George's Cathedral.....
Picture
Smiles, song and sunlight bonded the faithful of all denominations together....
Picture
.....and the stragglers brought up the rear....
Picture
Marshals marshaled with pride.....
Picture
....women walked and talked.....
Picture
....families and communities showed their spirit....
Picture
....and some just couldn't keep from grinning.
Picture
At the end of Adderly St, the procession rounded the bend....
Picture
...with Marlene and mascot Christopher in poll position...
Picture
And we arrived safe, sound and fully amped.
Picture
Our Walk done for another year....
Picture
......and well covered by a battery of cameras....
Picture
....it was time to mark the occasion of Artscape's Women's Humanity Arts Festival.....
Picture
....with joy....
Picture
....with thanks - to Naushad for providing over 4000 meals.....
Picture
....and with a fabulous song and dance programme courtesy Sis Thoko.
Picture
And all in the name of Faith. Thank you to all who walked in good faith with us - and we look forward to seeing you next year. The WOMAN ZONE team. xx Photographs courtesy Theresa Smith.
