Friday: Day 1
We headed off to Oudtshoorn on Friday afternoon. Ron came to pick me up from work at 4:00 pm. The car was packed and ready to go. Even in my uniform! Luckily I had a change of clothes in the car. I did do some driving from Grabouw until Riviersonered in which we stopped for dinner. After dinner, Ron took over and carried on until Oudtshoorn. We arrived in Oudtshoorn near 11:00 pm. It was a long drive, but it was definitely worth it. After arriving, we checked into the Protea Hotel. We had a rondavel to ourselves, which was lovely. The hotel was nice and quiet and when we entered the room, it was heated! The room contained a double bed, single and TV and there was a connected bathroom. It was a lovely room, perfect for us!
Thank goodness it was warm!!
