Baie duur vleis. Baie duur.
Interessante winkel. Smoked cheddar... Sounds good...
Ons eerste Kleinmond stap
January 1 in South Africa ⋅ ☀️ 23 °C
Hier is 'n wandelpad vanaf die karavaanpark, onderdeur die pad, tussen die riete en fynbos deur, tot op die strand. Van daar het ons strandlangs gestap, tot verby die swemstrand, en verder tot by dieRead more

Ons en die veld is al in die koelte, maar die berg het nog son. So mooi uitsig.
Piketberg is amper in die verlede

More oggend haak en ry ons. Als is al gepak. 'n Laaste ete by The Outpost. As ons hier klaar is, gaan ons onder die aircon lê en muf. Dis te warm om enige iets anders te doen.

Rugby kuier met Felix. Beesstert van masterchef Dries is lekker aan die gang. Ek het stampmielies gemaak. 'n Lekker brood staan ook en wag. Maar nou eers rugby!!
Na Felix se tweede bord vra Dries:Read more

Breakfast! And some shopping. We have a whole box of cherries to eat!
Versfeld Mountain Pass

After Januariefonteins Mountain Pass, came the Versfeld Mountain Pass. This one has a tar road with tight hairpin bends. Beautiful scenes of the valley down below.

A few video clips. It still doesn't show the beauty.
Januariesfontein Mountain Pass
November 22, 2025 in South Africa ⋅ ☀️ 27 °C
We left Goedverwacht on a gravel road to drive the Januariefonteins Mountain Pass. Words cannot describe the beauty and photographs are a feeble attempt to share it. We saw protea shrubs (trees?) 3mRead more
Goedverwacht
November 22, 2025 in South Africa ⋅ ☀️ 24 °C
Our morning started with a short drive to Goedverwacht, the most beautiful small town I have ever seen. One road in and through the town with houses built right next to the road. The road is not bigRead more

These sightings were unexpected and really made the day!
Glossy Ibis
Cape Cobra
Southern Black Korhaan
We saw a Yellow Billed Kite three times and not once could we get a photo.
Wit Mossel Pot Elandsbaai
November 15, 2025 in South Africa ⋅ ☀️ 21 °C
When we got to Elandsbaai, we were hungry. The food was delicious and some clothes came home with us.
Skilpadtepel? What a funny name. Delicous sletsappies! Waar's my koene?? 😂
Skrik van Rondom Padstal
November 15, 2025 in South Africa ⋅ ☀️ 23 °C
When we got out of the pass, Dries suggested a left turn to Elandsbaai instead of right towards Piketberg. And this gem was the reward.
Kapteinskloof Mountain Pass
November 15, 2025 in South Africa ⋅ ☀️ 19 °C
Our only plan for today was to do as little as possible, for as long as possible. And then we thought, why not drive Kapteinskloof Mountain Pass.
I can understand why God called the men of the BibleRead more
Rooireier / Purple Heron
November 13, 2025 in South Africa ⋅ 🌙 30 °C
I saw him fly over. Dries saw him land. He was quite far from us so the photos are not that great. Still a great sighting for us!
And then he took flight.
A cool morning
November 10, 2025 in South Africa ⋅ ⛅ 17 °C
Thank God for His mercy. We have a cool and overcast morning. May the rest of today be like this as well.
Slow Sunday at The Outpost
November 9, 2025 in South Africa ⋅ ☀️ 31 °C
It was so hot that we spent most of the day inside the caravan with the aircon on. Very unlike the Steyns. We didn't even do that in the middle of winter. This heat is absolutely brutal. Too hot toRead more
Swesie's Deli

Spekboom chutney en slaaisous? Sal proe en kom terug rapporteer.
TravelerDid you buy anything from the place? It looks like a very interesting place.
TravelerYeah we bought a few bits, the stuff on the photos and a weee bit of meat for the carnivore in our team. The smoked cheddar is VERY good. Will try the salt tonight on veggies.
