Last week I told everyone I was going to the Cedarberg, well I got it wrong. We spent a relaxing weekend at De Hoop nature reserve.This place is heaven. You can't use your cell phone - "Emergency calls only". No 3G or HSDPA - absolutely nothing. You just have birds, animals and nature's calls to entertain you.
We went on 3 hikes, and I took so many photos I felt like a kid in a candy shop! I wish I could share them all with you.
The 8km hike along the coast line was spectacular. There are caves and rock formations you could write a novel on. Each time you think you've seen the best, you come across another 5 even better ones!
Here are some pictures which I hope inspire you to get out there and have a real holiday.
now i have 2 reasons to envy u.
ReplyDelete1st u wre on BBC with Ainsley, and 2nd ... wow this place looks like heaven, and now i wanna visit too !
Really beautiful pictures.
Kate - this place truly is heaven. It is very remote, no shops, no phones - Like you say - Heaven!
ReplyDeleteI couldn't agree with you more - everyone needs a REAL holiday once a year (or more!). We just spent a week in the French Alps in a chalet with no TV and no internet. But of a shock to the system at first, but you get used to it pretty fast and end up playign with the cute kittens that live there and walking in the *spectacular* mountains. I've got some pictures up over at my blog if you're interested.
ReplyDeleteJeanne - I saw your pictures and am very jealous! I love the fact that everyone was "tech free" for a whole weekend!
