Drove up the Vanrhynsdorp pass which has spectacular views across flat country side as far as one can see.
Arrived at Niewoudtsville church where the info office for the flowers is. We saw quite a lot of flowers along the way. We were told to go to Mantjiesfontein where the flowers are lovely, but not as prolific as when we were here previously. We came across a couple who were experiencing an item on their bucket list...It was to sit in the flowers and have a picnic lunch with a bottle of wine!!
Stopped for a beer at Papkuilsfontein and Basil found another lorry!! The owner told us that she has a camp site on her farm amongst the flowers..so that is where we are camped for the night..no electricity and no cell signals and the stars are amazing. Sat and listened to the Klapper Larks marking their territory.(R120pp)
There is one other couple camped here..what a pleasure compared to last night!!
Did a little hand washing and once again it was dry in 2 hrs!!










Love your new Lorry.
