They are safely in Vryburg on a farm with a friend of a friend. Thank you kind friend! They are about to have a swim and rest their weary bones. They got an early start this morning after yesterday's bad experience with the wind.
Well, in a day or two they head into Botswana. A whole new chapter! I am so enjoying this experience with them and everyday that they continue and persevere I get more excited. I re-live in a way our trek in the Annapurna last year and what we achieved. Was flipping incredible!
On the 20th of November 2011 my nephew and his girlfriend left Grahamstown on an epic bike ride to Windhoek. This ride covered more than 2000 km's, over three countries in 20 days. This is that story. Grahamstown, Bedford, Cradock, Middelburg, Hanover, Phillipstown, Orania, Hopetown, Kimberley, Warrenton, Vryburg, Ganyesa, Bray, Werda, Khakhea, Bulukubalo, Morwametsi, Kang, Thootsa, Buitepos, Gobabis, Witvlei, Seeis, Windhoek!
I am just a little apprehensive about Botswana- there is not much in the line of civilisation between Kang and the Namibian border- Dries and Trysie's children, Christo and Maries, will be passing through Botswana on the 13th December and they know to look out for Abe and Karin- Dries has told them to have xtra water for them.
