around Africa - de Hoop
FYNBOS -
PROTEAS, BUCHU,
WATER BIRDS,
WHITE SAND DUNES
AND WHALE
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.
