Over next few weeks I will be posting photo’s of our Springbok-Upington-Calvinia Parks and Flower tour from 9 to 16 September 2013.

My parents asked me if I would like to accompany them on 8 day holiday. I was super excited and asked my husband and children if they are okay with the idea that I will be gone for a week and a day. They told me that I must enjoy it and take lots of photo’s. And like you all know me by now I can go overboard when I have my camera in hand. But rather to much than missing out  on anything…

We left home at 5 o’Clock in the morning on 9 September 2013. Because I can always take photo’s on the way back I tried not to stop for photo’s. We had a long road ahead of us approx 548 km and we still wanted to visited our first SANPARK the Namaqua National Park.  We took our first photo break at a service station just before Clanwilliam.  Dawn was breaking and this was also really the first chance we had to take out our cameras. From here on out my camera was always ready for action.

It was so peaceful here but we could not stay to long we still had a long road ahead of us. We decided that we will have breakfast at the Wimpy in Klawer our second official stop for the day.
