Pierre Repooc Productions - URL:
Bartolomeu Dias, a Portuguese explorer, was appointed by King John II of Portugal to search for a trading route to India. Without realizing it, he rounded the Cape of Good Hope, before being the first European to land in South Africa, landing at Mossel Bay (the Bay of Mussels) on February 3, 1488. Here he found a spring to replenish the ships water supply before being run off by the local people.
By early 1500, a milkwood tree on the site of the spring, became known for use as a the famous Post Office Tree used for decades by sea travelers to leave messages to be picked up by ships heading to and from Europe.

[한국어 정보]
모슬 베이에 가면 꼭 봐야 할 곳이 있다. 해변이 내려다보이는 언덕의 있는 디아스 해상 박물관이다. 디아스는 1488년 모슬 베이를 최초로 찾은 유럽인이다. 박물관에는 디아스가 탔던 카라벨 선의 원형을 살려 건조한 배가 전시되어 있다. 1988년 포르투갈 정부는 디아스의 희망곶 발견 500주년을 기념해 카라벨 선을 만들어 기증했다. 3개월의 항해 끝에 모슬 베이에 도착 장면이다. 이 배는 바람을 이용하는 범선으로 당시에는 리스본에서 모슬 베이 까지 6개월이 걸렸다고 한다. “주요 돛대가 147평방미터의 돛을 달 수 있었다는 것입니다. 그리고 뒤를 보면 57평방미터의 돛을 달았습니다. 총 220평방미터의 돛을 달았던 것입니다. 큰 돛을 보면 상당히 크고 무겁습니다. 무게는 (1.5톤)입니다. 이것을 보면 해양으로 나갔을 때 무겁지만 해풍을 잘 이용했을 것으로 보입니다.” 그 당시 원형을 살려 건조한 카라벨 선에 올라 배의 구석구석을 볼 수 있다. 간판과 거대한 돛, 구명보트, 배 후미에 있는 선실 등이다. 선장실 이다. 1평 정도의 방에 침대 하나와 조그마한 장하나 뿐이다. 갑판 밑이다. 이곳은 선원들의 방과 창고 화장실로 사용했다고 한다. 나는 지금이라도 이 배를 바다에 띄우면 돛을 펄럭이며 바다를 항해할 것 같은 착각이 들었다. 박물관에는 배와 함께 당시 시대상을 짐작할 수 있는 1400년대 포르투갈 의상을 전시해 놓았다. 그 당시 상황을 보여주는 지도가 전시되어 있는데 지금의 케이프타운을 테이블 베이로 표시된 것이 나의 흥미를 끌었다. 박물관 밖에는 수령 800년 된 밀크우드라는 거대한 나무가 있다. 이 나무에는 우편나무라는 희한한 이름이 붙어 있다. 모슬 베이는 16세기에 인도양을 횡단하는 범선의 기항지이었다. 선원들은 고향에 보내는 편지를 써 이 나무 밑에 걸린 부츠에 넣고 떠났다는 사연에서 유래한 것이다.

The Post Office Tree
September is Arbor Month on People's Weather. Check out the story of the post office tree in Mossel Bay.
Along the Garden Route, South Africa
South Africa's southern coast. A trail known as the Garden Route. My journey begins in Hermanus, where right whales swim close to shore watching humans watching them. Then further along to Mossel Bay, with its aboriginal cave beneath the lighthouse occupied for thousands of years. Then the museum complex with its replica of the Bartolomeu Dias used by the Portuguese in 15th century exploration of Africa. Wilderness with the cool name. And a crazy squatter, known as the Cave Man, homesteading in an abandoned rail road shed and his sea shell and driftwood art. On to Stormsriver to zip through the tree tops of the Tsitsitkamma forest. A confrontation with a troup of baboons. Finally finishing up in Post Elizabeth - and I was never seen, nor head from again. The musical accompaniment is Fever by Sarah Vaughn, remixed by Adam Freeland. Created: 26 December 2011.
