The perfect day to take a long winding road...... behind these gorgeous little cars..... into the Baviaans area in the Eastern Cape to find a little rough gem.....
A road seldom travelled by us....here are some photos of the Naartje Festival held this past Youth weekend!
Truly magnificent country vistas
Happy little children in a field outside Hankey and the produce from the area......the home of Saartje Baartman's remains
Beautiful flora
arriving in Patensie we found this great little "padstal"....Tolbos.....a nice place for refreshments.....
And on to the Naartje Festival......
Beautifully decorated stalls filled with all the freshest produce you can imagine.....
Just rows and rows of citrus groves and pack houses stretching onto the surrounding mountains.....
reminds me of the Loire Valley in France ........ and a basket of my fresh loot
happy for so many reasons....... I live in a beautiful part of the world!
See you soon
Shel
