Sorry I have been quiet for 2 days but wireless is not always as fast as it could be.
Since I last posted we have stayed at Berluda Cottages in Schoemanshoek. A beautiful settlement just outside of Oudtshoorn on the way to the Cango caves. It was lovely and relaxing.
W- This is the photo that we were trying to show you that disconnected skype. This is the view that went along with my morning tea and biskuit. Niiiice hey!
I need to also mention that they washed every guests car in the morning before checkout! Now that is service!
After a lovely breakfast chatting with a delightful Christian lady we drove to the Cango Caves.
It was humid underground and at one point in the tour they turn all the lights out so that you get the feel for what it was like in the 1700s when the caves were discovered. While it was dark L sang Amazing Grace! She did a grand job of the first verse and I am delighted that she stopped there... They didn't turn the lights on until she was finished and I hate being underground and I hate not seeing where I am! Good thing she didn't pick Wesley! :)
Oudtshoorn is also known as a huge Ostrich breeding community.So no trip is quite comeplete with out viewing Ostrich. We decided racing Ostrich was a bit boring after riding elephant so I would suggest that if you come to South Africa that you ride Ostrich first. L and I have become quite good at game spotting during the last week and we have a great chant that goes: Bush, bush, bush , bush , bush, beak, bush, bush, bush....
A great game as you whizz down country roads at over 100kph!
Here, you try!
B, cL and L,
ReplyDeleteThanks for the catch up.
Bush, bush, bush, Beak, bush, bush, bush.
Well spotted alowing that our scene wasn't moving past at 100k.
Our prayers are with you every day.
