Spring flowers

It is spring and the country side is a blaze of colour, but one aspect about living in the Eastern Cape is that no matter what month it is you will always find flowers.

A trip to the van Staden's Wild Flower Reserve this weekend provided a delightful feast for the senses.

We're heading to the Van Stadens Wildflower Reserve on Thursday for a Geocaching event and I'm definitely taking my camera with.
