Day 2 at Lake Eland – tenting in .. our type 

The glampers arrived and setup alongside us. There’s sufficient house for 2 tents (three at a push) on a web site.

The glampers introduced down-duvets.

There was some envy and possibly a comment made right here and there. Blooming glampers! Don’t know what it means to actually camp. You have to be one with the outside and components! Okay, that’s simply pure jealousy on our half.

Actions

We had deliberate an event-filled day and after breakfast determined to go and burn off some energy. First up, the lake eland suspension bridge which is 80 meters in size and might maintain 70 tons (notice was taken of this after the breakfast we had). The youngest in our group, the niece RM made all of it the best way throughout! Word, the primary time I attempted it I didn’t make it, and right here was a three-year-old cruising alongside as if she wasn’t suspended meters up within the air. These glampers have been placing us to disgrace right here.  The person who got here after us did a form of woman scream. Don’t blame him. It actually pushes up the adrenaline ranges.

As soon as all of us made it throughout, the compulsory photographs needed to be taken and it was then determined to make our technique to the following journey. The Caves.

The Caves | Lake Eland | Oribi Gorge | 100% price it!!!!

Now, I personally really feel the Caves ought to have been known as “The Trek to the Caves” as a result of heck, we positively burnt off all of the energy making the stroll again. Certain, the stroll there was a breeze and all downhill however we should always have taken notice of all of the adventurers coming again up, crimson of face and puffing for air. Additionally, the benches strategically positioned each few meters have been stuffed with our bodies who regarded content material to simply keep put. Hear, it’s 100% price it. The Caves are lovely with water dripping from the overhanging rocks (water which was used to chill us down – we didn’t get sick so assume it was clear). We have been tempted to take a sip as solely introduced two bottles of water however thought higher of it. For those who’re going to take the stroll pack sufficient water and cozy footwear with good grip as it may be slippery in locations the place the water has fallen on the rock and in addition on the precise path when there’s been rain.

Time for a Snack

We made it again and determined that our vitality ranges wanted to be topped up with a milkshake and Pizza from the restaurant. Was feeling very satisfied in regards to the burnt energy now. Convey on the meals!

The restaurant has an in depth menu catering for many tastes and even had just a few vegan choices. We loved the meal a lot that we determined that lunch was on the menu the following day as effectively however, bought to burn these energy off beforehand…

We made our method again to camp, taking a sluggish recreation drive and viewing the assorted animal species that decision Lake Eland residence.
