Tania wrote us this story, which makes my life so much easier, now I don't have to write. Perhaps I just need to explain that the hike is near Fouriesburg.
Just want to thank Judy and Robert for organising their first hike as club
members.
We really had a great time. The weather was perfect and the countryside was
absolutely beautiful. The first night we stayed in a huge barn on hay
mattresses. Not so comfortable, the mattresses.
Saturday we had one of the nicest hikes we've had for a long time. Our stuff was taken up to the cave
for us, so we only carried day packs. We saw petrified trees, lots of gem
stones and dinosaur bones, say the men. We arrived at the cave fairly early
and tried to wash in the stream. It was far to cold, so we just stayed
dirty!
We then sat around and ate and had intelligent conversations and
some not so intelligent one's. The view from the cave was spectacular. We
pitched tents in the cave to stay warm. The cave is massive, biggest in
eastern Freestate.
Sunday they fetched our stuff and we had a leisurely
walk back to basecamp.
