On To Citrusdal

September 26th took us from Springbok to Citrusdal, at the beginning of South Africa's big-time fruit and fruit-of-the-vine country, the Cedarburg Mountains, and the Olifant River. Beautiful country. The geographical diversity is amazing.
The storm clouds of the previous afternoon and evening were
for real: we awoke to 2 degrees C (35F) , for which the little
heaters in our rigs were not designed; and it stayed relatively
cool for the rest of our tour

The scenery initially of huge domes and the croppie rubble
adorning them



Giving way to a huge block that seemingly becomes the
Cedarburg Mountains


And in the valleys, mile after mile of beautiful agriculture

Cedarburgs

Olifant River, reservoir


Entry to our penultimate campground, in Citrusdal

And another braai; we miss this great group so much already...
