Here is an explosion of colour!! The town has been painted bright orange. I have never seen so many Namaqua Daisies as this year. How long it will last depends on some follow up rains. Some rain predicted for today. We will see. Anyone tht wants to come have a look, can do so within the next two weeks or so. vhpy

Boet, I have American tourists visiting for a few days, what are the flowers like now?
Is it worth driving up that way on Tuesday this week perhaps?
