We spent one day in the area around Graskop (a town about an hour north of here). We were originally going up to see Blyde River Canyon and the beautiful lookouts which surround it...however, it turned into quite a cold and foggy day without visibility. So we spent some time in Graskop (once again at a pancake house!) and enjoyed just being together.
At one of our stops, Stefan and Cohen kept warm as they waited for us to look through some of the artifacts.
The boys sort of got tired of "smiling for the camera" and began to make faces toward the end of the day.
Melissa, we are still all scratching our heads at your choice of the chicken liver and piri-piri pancake! ?? Only in Africa!
Wesley was completely unimpressed with the splendor around her. But pretty much everyone was impressed with her! Everywhere we stopped, people were completely taken with her. (In most of the local African traditions, it really is not cutomary to take the baby out from the house until he or she is older--one lady in church the other day was telling me in her culture they don't usually take the kids out until they are at least 3 months old--so it is quite a sight to see a newborn being hauled all around!)
The serious family photo didn't quite turn out.
