Western Cape Road-trip | Day 6 & 7 | Bontebok

Uwe Auer — Tue, 31 Oct 2023 14:48:40 +0000

Finally a chill day! No rushing to pack up our camp site, no driving on dirt roads for hours (although this is very fun, it’s nice to take a break). And it was BOILING hot! Linda, Olivia and I spent most of our time in the shade of Wayne and Kristin’s wrap around awning. Man, that thing is lekker. I am very jealous. I was also very jealous of everyone’s fridges… I would do bad things for an ice…

At 7.15 everyone was lined up ready to go, I just needed to load some firewood that we had left over from last night into the back of the bakkie. And then for some strange reason, the braai bak with our leftover meat from the braai slid off the dashboard and…

It was an early morning for me. I battle to sleep past sunrise, and being summer in South Africa, it starts getting light from around 04h45. It was a great opportunity to try and tidy up Olivia was awake as well, so I prepared a bottle of formula and let Linds sleep in for a few more minutes while I fed her. At 6am it was already starting to bake out there in the Karoo.

Western Cape Road-trip | Day 1 | Cape Town to Seweweekspoort

Uwe Auer — Tue, 31 Oct 2023 14:48:17 +0000

One more sleep and then our road trip can begin. Until now, we were putting all our road trip items in a neat pile in the garage, waiting to be loaded into the bakkie. How did this pile get so big? There seemed to be a lot more things in that pile than what we had written down. Luckily for us we have a bakkie to load everything into, however, it has not been kitted out for camping trips just yet…
