2 weeks in Volksrust filled me with fear - no coast, no SE, no mountain - but aah, our land is beautiful! Rolling green hills, great people, game, thunderstorms and dams to swim in. Didn't know anything about birds until I popped in for a pint in Wakkerstroom. The Hitchcock movie that was happening outside was a mass gathering of Amur Falcons from Siberia and Mongolia that do an annual migration of 4000 miles, flying over the sea, often at night. Stuffs happening over the next hill - go find it!
