Very uneventful drive today. Not many flowers along the road to Springbok. Apparently the rains weren't very good this year.
Hopefully the flower volumes will improve along the coast.
Woke up to thick mist and about 8 degrees. In Houthoop Campsite.
Drive up through Kleinsee, Port Nolith and Alexander Bay was cool and misty.
1st night of the trip, hot and crisp white linen. 2bdRead more
Campsite in the middle of nowhere, only 2 other vehicles and they were far away so that we only heard them occasionally.
Truly back to nature.
Left Kokerboomkloof in bright sunshine and hit low cloud at the top of Helskloof. Temperature dropped to 12 degrees.
Stopped to look at Wondergat ...
Spent last night in Jakkalswater outside Springbok. The Namaqua Quest MTB race takes place from here from 1-3 September. So glad we weren't camping with the 300 participants in igloo tentsRead more
Drive down through Skilpad and onto Skuinsbaai Noord.
We're the only people in the camp tonight! What a treat.
Such variety and colour!
