The Bushmans Rock

We arrived at the Bushman’s Rock just after 1pm and to our delight we had, had a room upgrade for free. It is a beautiful hotel with lovely air conditioned rooms and our room has bi-folding doors that open up onto the pool. All of the rooms have fridges and kettles inside and there is a restaurant on site that does award winning Eisbein.
Straight away I went for a swim. The temperature is already 32°c and it was nice to cool off. Then we took a walk up the road to the local shop to get some cold water and milk to make teas and coffees later.
Once we were back at the lodge we both had a lay down for half an hour as we didn’t get any sleep last night as the air con didn’t work and then at 5pm we headed over to the restaurant for dinner where I was expecting the best Eisbein ever and was thoroughly disappointed when my meat turned up uncured and tasteless. I even left some of it.
Ellie had better luck though, with here deep fried chicken schnitzel and there was so much she had to ask for a box to bring it back to the room. With the meal and a soft drink for Ellie and 3 beers for me it came to £20 which was a bargain even though I hadn’t liked mine.
At 6:30pm we headed back to our room where we watched a couple of hours of Netflix before crashing out totally exhausted. Tomorrow will be the biggest day of our trip. Our vehicle should arrive and if it doesn’t we’ll know we’ve been conned out of a lot of money and 6 months of planning has gone out of the window not to mention the money. If it does this will be the trip of a lifetime and we’ll be South African car and caravan owners and we’ll be set for years. This whole trip depends on tomorrow.Leer más
