We woke up this morning to find the valleys of the Golden Gate Highlands National Park cloaked in a thick fog, drove to one of the mountain tops, found a spot above the low lying clouds, and were rewarded with the most beautiful sunrise.

Sunsets get all the glory, but then there is sunrise! ! I think because most people are still under the covers in bed :)- beautiful shot.
You may very well be right! We de Wets are early risers (luckily) 😉
So I see:)-
Breathtakingly beautiful!!
It was definitely one of the most memorable sunrises I’ve ever experienced Joanne!
Oehoe! Ongelooflik Dries. (Ek dink as jy ‘n boek moet uitgee oor al jou fotos en wedervaringe, gaan dit defnitief ‘n sukses wees.) Hou so voort …
Baie dankie vir die ondersteuning en aanmoediging Spokie!
Fortune favours the brave,you guys: we were always terrified of fog when driving on strange roads in Italy, thinking there could be landslip anywhere. But then, I guess you actually know most of these roads, yes …?
FABULOUS photo !!!
Thanks Margaret-Rose! Yes, I sometimes think I know the roads in some of our national parks better than the roads in my own neighbourhood 😉
Asemrowend,Dries!
Dankie nogmaals Dina!
almost surreal….. beautiful!
“Surreal” describes the experience perfectly, thank you!
Beautiful! Beautiful!
You can’t ever grow tired of sunrises like this, wouldn’t you agree Rosemarie?
What a grand view to wake up to! Amazing capture!
Thanks Amy! Indeed, no hassles getting “up and at ’em” when this is your motivation 😀
🙂 I probably wouldn’t mind to stay awake all night to wait for this grand view.
Golden!
Priceless!
