                                                         WATCHING.
                                                         There’s so much more
                                                         to fit in that heading, but
                                                         not enough space. De
                                                         Hoop Nature Reserve
                                                         is one of those visits at
                                                         the end of a bumpy dirt
                                                         road, that you are so glad
                                                         you made time for.

                                                         I was persistant in wanting to
                                                         visit this lovely reserve and it
                                                         paid off: plants that I love like
                                                         Heathers, Helichrysums, Proteas
                                                         and Elegias; views of the sea,
                                                         sand dunes, pelicans,
                                                         flamingos; and a restaurant
                                                         that was rustic fine dining.
