And I am on holiday, after a long but successful year.
car is packed and off we go to Mooi River Only a 1.5 hour drive from Hillcrest, to a magical trout farm on the outskirts of the town.
No electricity! Entertainment that you could find here is the incredible bird watching, fly fishing, scenic runs through the forest and farms which look over Giant’s Castle and drinking, lots of drinking.
I spent my days reading by the water and discussing the crazy year that is about to pass us by. Our evenings were taken up next to the braai with a glass of wine, watching an amazing fire show and listening to the frog choir put me to sleep.
We were only here for two nights but we had great weather and thus began our 2017 festive holidays.
