Fishing, Skiing, Eating and all those good things

This weekend we took a drive to a friends house on the Breede River for an amazingly relaxing weekend away. We were celebrating his 31st birthday and celebrate we did with great food (the potjie and the baked cheesecake blew my mind), good wine (but not too much of it), awesome company (almost all from the EC #winkwink) and some pretty horrid fishing (we caught "sweet-f-all!")

It was so great to do a little "road-less-travelled" adventuring and visit Infanta - a place I've never been to before and am fairly certain I'll never visit again! It has the biggest river mouth that I've ever seen and the amount of water pushing through totally explains why the water ends up way inland at Riviersonderend.

The weather was amazing - far too warm for all the winter woolies that I'd packed remembering our last icy cold trip there. The river looked like glass for our whole weekend with not a ripple, other than from the crazy folk who dared to ski (one even without a wetsuit!) We even got to see the oldest hand-pulled pont in South Africa in action.

Great break away with some great people - Thank You guys :-)
