Table Mountain National Park in Cape Town, South Africa gets an Ability Guidebook!

I would very much like to thank the National Education Association Foundation’s Global Fellow Program for making me a Global Fellow for the second time. As a Fellow I travelled to Peru and now South Africa and because of that these two countries will have close to a dozen Ability Guidebooks! Thank you NEAF!!!
