Looking after the Nation

The Cradle of Mankind and Surrounds








With the holiday season virtually at an end we decided to take a drive out towards the Cradle of Mankind and then on towards Groot Marico in the North West Province.  Due to all the rain we have been having it is a garden of Eden of rolling green hills and meadows that go on for miles.

The Green, Green Grass of Home





All taken in the farming area between Joburg and Klerksdorp.  We have had so much rain that our countryside is an absolute paradise for animals and humans alike!
