Cango Farm (Vertorama) - a photo on Flickriver

Cango Farm (Vertorama)

Location: Along the R328 between Oudtshoorn and the Cango Caves.

Description: On Saturday we decided to take a drive up the Swartberg pass (considered one of the most spectacular mountain passes in the world) in search of some snow. The kids were very excited that they might have a chance to build a snowman… and of course, I was very excited that I might finally get a chance to shoot some snow-pics!

We could clearly see the snow on all the peaks while we were driving towards the mountains, but the closer we got, the more inaccessible it seemed. The conversations in the car were all about snow, throwing snow-balls and building snowmen… activities which are quite foreign to many of us here in sunny South Africa.

The R328 from Oudtshoorn passes through some incredibly beautiful landscapes, gushing rivers flowing through indigenous forests, green fields and lush meadows around every corner... I only stopped once to capture this scene, but I could have taken a million photographs along the road that day!!

Oh, by the way… we did find some snow, throw some balls and build that snowman… everyone returned home in a happy mood!!
