Vesi oli poikki ekana päivänä, saimme juomavettä, vasta kun kävimme itse sitä kaupasta hakemassa. Guest house ei tarjonnut apuaan siinä kohdassa. Muuten oli hyvä paikka. Rauhallinen sijainti, kävelymatkan päässä kaikesta tarpeellisesta. Nukuttiin hyvin, vaikka väki juhli Springbockien maailamanmestaruutta.
