We left Pretoria yesterday morning, overnighted at Reynecke Park (not my choice). Arrived lunchtime at at Camdeboo National Park (Nqweba Campsite) - We have been sweltering yesterday and today. Yesterday 39 and 32 today. 

Reynecke Park was actually very quiet last night very little noise from the road (N8) and no trucks in the park to annoy me either. We left 06h00 this morning. N1 down to Colesburg had lots of trucks as usual. N9 from Colesburg to Noupoort the road is in excellent condition from Noupoort to Graaf Reinet the road is good with two stop and go sections, so they are upgrading the surface on the N9. Not that many trucks on this section.

Too hot to go out and look for game this afternoon and darn my Aircon in the van has packed up with what seems to be a dead short, replaced the fuse and and it immediately popped again, so it will have to wait until I can get someone to look at it.

We off early tomorrow down to the coast for a month then into Cape Town for a month have to attend a wedding and then possibly up the Garden Route somewhere for a while or maybe up the West Coast, we will see which direction to take. 

All the best....safe travel. Hope the aircon is not big issue.

Travel safely Brian.

Have a good trip Brian, we going inland this year.

Tks for all the well wishes, we arrived safely in Mossel Bay. 

Road to Aberdeen from Graaf Reinet is in excellent condition just stacks of long distance taxis with trailers heading toward Graaf Reinet. After Aberdeen no more taxis and road condition fair to the Outinequa Pass, from there excellent again.

Hopefully not, however atm the weather here is overcast and nice and cool. If it gets too hot then the sea will have to cool me off here.

Brian, which park are you at in Mossel Bay, Die Punt or De Bakke?

Ronald we are at Hartenbos :)

Thanks Brian. Will you still be there the first week of March?

Yip

The reason for asking, we'll be in Hartenbos on the 4th of March and it will be good to put a face to the name if we can come and say 'Hi'.

Travel safely and enjoy.  Ek geniet maar die karavaan vakansies soos wat die mense hier en daar 'n foto laai.

Ai eendag as ek groot is ....................................😜
