SUNDAY 3RD - HAPPY FATHERS DAY


Another travelling day today. Only 250 kilometres to go to Capetown and our final dinner tomorrow night. What a fabulous experience it has been.

 
At our Friday night venue, they used a donkey cart to haul the luggage. Very novel.

We did have one activity planned for today in that we visited the Namaqua National Park, a little way off our route but worth it because of the fabulous wild flowers it is famous for at this time of year. The only problem was that, because of a late winter and no rain, the flowers are not in bloom. One of our rare disappointments. I did get a photo showing the potential.

 
We consoled ourselves by having a coffee at a very quaint coffee shop on the way back out to the main road.


Tonight is our last night dining “out of The Beast”. We have always had lunches prepared by our very capable chef Israel but he has prepared dinner perhaps only every second night. Everything he needs for his excellent meals and for a well stocked bar is carried with us.
