Familiar Scenes

A handful of scenes that have now become very familiar to us during our stay here in Rocklands:


Our Blokhuys cottage on the de Pakhuys farm.


The inside of our Blokhuys when it’s cold and rainy.


The front porch of the de Pakhuys Farm, where we connect to the wireless internet on rest days.


The drive to Clanwilliam.


Clanwilliam, the closest (only) place to grocery shop.


Bustling (haha) downtown Clanwilliam.


Our Chico rockin’ a modest version of the infamous “red stripe”.


Cederburg weather: cloudy, rainy and sunny….all at the same time.


Rocks, sunsets, and a full moon.


A lunar eclipse! (not so familiar of a scene for Paul and I, but for the South Africans, “eh, we get those all the time down here”).


Braais at our Blokhuys.


Drinks at our Blokhuys.


The de Pakhuys campground.


Nalle, the de Pakhuys lab.


The Fortress.


The view from The Fortress.


Flappers.


Wildflowers.


…and more wildflowers.


Sunset at the boulders.
