Through sheep land

Somewhere besides N2 between Cape Town and Mossel Bay

It took us a while to get started, but after a very late breakfast at Euro House - full English for Sebastian, who was missing the baked beans badly. But after checking Victoria Warft for shops that could repair his father’s Pentax we were on our way! Down the N2 towards Garden Route!

I expected something like when the girls and I drove up to East Coast National Park, ostriches by the road and to on - but missed it by far! We drove through smooth hills and meadows with mostly sheep-farms. There was canola (“Raps” – for the German readers) around us and sheep on the farmlands. Not so much different from Germany, besides the wideness of it all – and the number of the sheep in the herds! A little further there were actually ostrich farms as well, so ostriches yes, but not wild.

We passed wonderful landscapes and mountains far away, which we saw with clouds and without on top. It was beautiful! Our destination for today: Mossel Bay.
