The Marakele National Park, and the Waterberg Mountains it protects, is a beautiful place.

Plectranthus hereroensis – the Herero Spur Flower – thrives on the rocky slopes of the Waterberg at Marakele’s Lenong Viewpoint
I suspect this is the blooms of a type of Senecio
Traveling on the plains below the Waterberg reveals a very different community of plants
Marakele’s Magic!

Wat ‘n pragtige wereld! Dit lyk of mens tyd nodig het om stadig hier deur te ry om al die mooi te waardeer.

You’ll not be sorry, Anne. A little tip from people who found out the hard way: If you’re going to camp at Bontle like we did, best to invest in a couple of very realistic rubber snakes to keep the monkeys at bay.

Oooo, nou mis ek Potgietersrus, Sterkrivier, selfs Tolwe. Ek het jare se heen en weer ry Pta toe(huistoe). Nog met gedeeltelike grondpaaie, toe teerpaaie en toe N1 snelweg.

Beslis nie. Gelukkig is die spoedgrens hier net 100 en baie plekke 80. Dit gee mens kans om iets raak te sien en te geniet.

What a beautiful place! Some of those flowers look similar to things here, but I’m not conversant enough with what they’re called to know if they’re the same.
