Took a trip to Seweweekspoort last weekend
A gravel poort with breathtaking rock formations

All packet up and ready to go



Crop sprayer on route



Time to hit the gravel, after all, that's what we came for



Left, or, right, right is the way



First water crossing, a few more during the weekend, nothing major, all went well without mishaps





Beautiful countryside



Some more water, all under the bridge this time



Information



Some more water, nothing to worry about



A new route was taken and some new exploring with new places seen





Dam overflowing



"Sleeping beauty" mountain view - Riversdal



A history lesson

And then, the destination we came for











Home, for tonight



Some call it barbeque, we call it "braai", fire for the braai



Time for a "cold one" - beer



Dinner



And then a fire in the fireplace, parrafin lamp and a good evening chatting into the night



After a good night's rest, up and exploring the rest of the poort

Then, the end of the poort, but not the end of the road, still some time to get home and lots of gravel roads, time for a quick snack





The way to do it, paper manual











Got to have a photo of the windpomp in as well





Time to take the road home



And, another windpomp



Gravel highway







Almost home, back on the black stuff



760 km of fun, a wonderful weekend
