It’s the fifth day of our 2020 Summertide Ramble, and we’ve moved again – this time about 200km due east to the Wilderness section of the Garden Route National Park, where our cosy log cottage in the Ebb-and-Flow Rest Camp has a lovely (if overcast and rather chilly at the moment) view over the wetlands of the Serpentine River just before its confluence with the Touw River.

It looks like a great place for a peaceful retreat.

And it is, Siobhan. A favourite destination for many South Africans at this time of year.

Our national parks are great to relax, H.J. I’m sure yours are too?
The sound of the thousands of weavers is beautiful!

Altyd lekker om jou saam te hê, Una. Ons reis deur die nasionale parke van die Oos en Wes Kaap. Ons is nou by Wilderness maar het nog 4 ander bestemmings oor hierna.

I wish I could add the sound effects of thousands of weaver birds nesting among the reeds into the picture too!
