We have arrived in Namaqualand.
Banana milkshake and a cappuccino in the quirky Springbok Hotel, the space defies description, part bookstore, part museum, part random memorabilia, part precious rock collection, part cafe and locals having an early dinner.
The scenery and weather has been changeable all the way up the N7, cold and overcast to start but its cleared up now, a vast blue sky here in Springbok, our overnight stop before heading to Klein Pella.
The flowers from the minibus look promising, swathes of orange, yellow, white and purple, I am looking forward to walking among them.
The most fascinating thing for me today was learning about the 'circles' formed in the landscape by the underground termite colonies. They leave these circular scars in the landscape where very little grows.
