Cederberg

This is a mountain range just 150 km or so north of Cape Town where Natalie and I enjoy taking our dog Ben to any of the number of pet-friendly lodges in the area for the weekends. This was once the hunting grounds for the nomadic people known as the San Bushmen. Their paintings can still be seen on the rocks, having withstood the environmental beating of many hundreds of years!

Atrwork? Quite possibly a conversation with the gods...

Not everyone enjoys sore feet after a day in the mountains!
