Heading for
the Indian Ocean along the Garden Route. Leaving hot, dry Karoo area; looking
forward to seeing the Indian Ocean.
The dry arid Karoo.
On the highway not far from Oudtshoorne.
As we passed through the Outeniqua Pass we had a glimpse of the Indian Ocean in the distance.

Levi deep in thought (or looking for baboons) along the Outeniqua Pass.
Passing through George we continued a few miles to Wilderness. The expanse of sand and the roar of the ocean had the boys going in the water with their clothes on. The heat was such that they were looking for some reprieve. The water is a different colour and temperature compared to the Atlantic. This beautiful blue, aqua colour is hard to capture in photographs.

We continued to Knysna
were we camped on the estuary. A pathway ran behind the campground into town.
Luke and I made use of this for running in the mornings. Our tents had guinea
fowl and other water birds keeping us company. Eating
without cooking is becoming challenging. We have gotten to know the deli
section of grocery stores quite well.
The second
day in Knysna we searched out a book store as Levi has powered through all
three books he brought from home.
The reading tree in the campsite. All three boys are in there!
Getting everyone loaded with reading material
we walked to the water front and were surprised to see Winnipeg made it onto a
distance marker sign board.
Knysna was a
good stop, but a busy, congested city. Onward to Plettenberg Bay tomorrow.
