What a lekker jol.
Arrived at Bethlehem on Friday at 12h00 after sitting out the clouds and met up the the GT 450 buddies. Did the touristie / stall visit /checking out wierd planes and then thankfully the seven GT's were given clearance to push out the parking lot- assisted by the ever efficient Tailspin to wait for take off.
Awesome sunset flight via Clarens, avoided the yak practice formation through the valley to Shumba Holiday Farm. Lekker spot,
Next day, opted to miss the EEA and rather fly over Lesotho 's Katze dam - 14 500 ft, air speed 75 Mph and ground speed 140 mph. One even tested the new wing at 15100 ft. Descended over the escarpment to a lekker breakfast at Dragon Peaks before re-feuling at the Ultra city. Returning to Shumba at Foeriesberg we were klapped with some serious skommel to enjoy the end of the rugby test .and some were missed. 
Enjoyed the smoothest return this morning to finish a lekker jol with a great crowd. Sadly camera's battery stuffed.
