26/07: On the road & Bloemfontein (South Africa)

Posted by on July 26, 2011

When we woke up this morning, the sun was shining and the sky was blue. The weather seemed nice again. At 8h we left Mossel Bay. We had a long trip ahead of us.

Around 11h we arrived in Graaf Reinet where we should continue driving on the N9. But suddenly the road was closed. The police told us it was closed because of snow. This sounded unbelievable for us. But we took another road which was a detour. Soon we noticed a lot of snow everywhere next to the road. It also was very cold suddenly. It was weird to see snow in South Africa. Later we heard on the radio that a lot of roads are closed because of the snow.

We drove the whole day…

Around 18h we arrived in our guesthouse in Bloemfontein. It’s a nice guesthouse. We got a house instead of a room because we are the only people here so we have a lot of space.

On our way we did some groceries shopping. Tonight we will have our last braai in South Africa!
