Kagga Kamma --> Morne Kleinhans

We went to Kagga Kamma on 23 & 24 February 2006.

Our day started very rushed and after some car trouble I thought we would not make it to the lodge. After a couple of hours on the road we arrived at the gate which was left unlocked by the friendly staff... this was already after sunset!

On arrival the pace slowed down, we were given welcome drinks and escorted to our cave. After unpacking we made our way back to the main building for dinner. This was an amazing experience within itself... outside next to a big fire set between the rocks. The food was very good, with delicacies like springbok and gemsbok featured on the menu.

Our activities included star gazing through a telescope mounted on top of the rocks. Viewing the stars from there was an awesome sight! We saw the ring around Saturn!

We also took part in the morning game drive during which we saw some Gemsbok, Zebra, Eland and Wildebeest.

A highlight of the trip was to see the bushmen paintings. They were very well preserved and it was very informative to listen to the guide explaining their meaning.

The weekend ended with a sundowners drive. This really put the word sundowner into perspective. With a cold beverage in hand we watched the sunset over the rocks. Everything around us was showered with the golden rays of the setting sun, a beautiful sight.

This was really a weekend to remember and we would like to thank the friendly staff of Kagga Kamma for their hospitality.
