23 Passes

I love mountain passes and for years have had the thought in the back of mind to travel more of them sometime.  Well the opportunity has arisen thanks to Jack planning a week long camping trip traversing 23 passes in the Western Cape.
We leave in a weeks time.
Looking forward to not only the experience but to having a break from routine crazy-busy life. 
Will be camping with 5 other couples. 
Watch this space for updates.

At home

We are back home again after a great 8 day holiday with Thelma & Clifford and  Elaine & Helmoed in the stunning Drakensberg.
We also accomplished 4 days of solid driving to get from Cape Town to Drakensberg and back. But this was also a pleasurable part of the holiday as we love a road trip especially through the Karoo and the Ladybrand area where we have not been before.
Spent a very pleasant afternoon and most comfortable accommodation with Brian & Crystelle in Ladybrand.
In summary:
 Distance travelled   3,310 Km 
 Consumption   6.76 /100Km 
 Total fuel cost  R 2 291.52
 Fuel cost per Km  R 0.69

Till the next trip.
