      Thanks Liz!

      Yes, a very determined litlle boy, and of course when his legs gets sore, there’s always dad’s back and shoulders to get him home 😉

      The hiking trails at Golden Gate Highlands National Park are really lovely Janet. The steepest sections and the most popular trails are “paved” with bricks like those shown in the photograph, to minimze the impact of erosion.

      Thanks for yet another kind contribution!

    Aah…such blissful moment. Joubert sure is a lucky young man to have a ‘playroom’ this big and this gorgeous!

      Thanks for visiting with us again Raja!

      We’re blessed to be able to spend so much time together as a family in beautiful surroundings like these.

        But we are filled with responsibilities and the sad traces of reality; while kids are totally untrammeled by either. 🙂

        Yes, that’s is a true treasure. So many kids today have little access to green spaces and, therefore, never learn to love Nature. Have you read Richard Louv’s book “Last Child in the Woods: Saving our children from Nature-Deficit Disorder?” Lots of important points about the absolute necessity for kids to experience real nature.

        Thanks for the tip Annette – I haven’t read that book yet, but I’ll have a look for it at our local library. It seems to be confirmation of something we de Wets believe in absolutely!
