When you gotta go...

Hiking

From the first until the third of Juli we hiked for two days in the area around our farm. On the first day we hiked along the Caledon river to a farm 12 km further. Our friend Andri knew we were coming. That evening, after a campfire, we went to bed early. It was a hard and cold night for all of us, sleeping under de open skies :-) But with 8 of us on a row it was a nice experience.

The next day we hiked another 20 and hitchhiked anoter 10 km in the back of a bakkie. Gideon, being the youngest, walked all by himself the first day. But the second day he wanted to be carried most of the way...

Our destination was at Thandy & Glen on the farm, about 15 km away from Modderpoort. We had a great meal there, home brewed beer and a great night sleep on a soft matras :-) A world of difference to the night before.
The third day we hiked around the farm and visited a cave.

It was good to be out as a family for a couple of days.

Enjoy the pictures.

Four

Gideon turned four. He's crazy about 'cars' so you can be sure his piece of the cake was extra tasty...

A week before his birthday he went to school for the first time :-) It went we and he enjoyed it!
