At dawn yesterday, a group of determined journalists and executives gathered on an icy cold beach to watch the landing of the West Africa Cable System (WACS) cable at Yserfontein in the Western Cape. A clear sky, lit by a waning full moon, and the almost imperceptible wind made for perfect conditions for the final leg of the undersea cable to be laid. Here are some of the photographs IT News Africa took of the landing.
