Summer holidays

During last year’s summer holidays, we had a 1mo baby, so we didn’t travel much at all. In the most recent summer, we changed that. We celebrated our anniversary at Skilpadvlei in Stellenbosch. Then, we spent a few days in Oudtshoorn where we soaked in the dry heat, and had the most wonderful time in Wilderness at the Ebb & Flow rest camp, before concluding with a few days in Diemersfontein (Wellington), and seeing some friends in Franschhoek.

In Diemersfontein, I introduced Mila to the concept of one of Flanders’ most iconic skits: the tripstick, let the twisting of a stick decide the direction of the hike when arriving at a crossroads. It culminates in Hilde, the woman, wanting to cheat when they get stuck in an endless loop.

I have to admit, Mila and I cheated.

This is the last of the three skits:

Here are the pics of our trip.
