Father, daughter exploration trip.
School had finished and dark clouds building up, a bleak weekend ahead by the looks of things.
I suggest to my wife I take Jessica my daughter to Oudtshoorn to see the Western Cape dogs and explore the area a bit, not a problem she books us into Reimpies hotel 560 meters from the WC dog campsite ,how cool is that. 8)
We left a bit late and as we entered the Langkloof the rain came down that would make hurricane Katrina tame. We were drowned rats within a minute. We took refuge at the Dutchman’s coffee house in Kareedouw for extra hot coffee and chocolate cake.
I suggested we turn back and Jessica told me she‘s having fun as we never really travel in torrential storms with lightning and great crashes of thunder entertaining us, so onwards we go.
10KM past Avontuur the sun was out and by the time we reached Oudsthoorn we were dry and cooking.
Here are some pics and minimal descriptions as everyone has seen most of these pics in other ride reports.
1+2=our home for Friday and Saturday.
3=Jessica and camel comparing eyelashes
4+5 Swartberg
