The Vaal


Last weekend we had plans to camp at the Vaal (for the first time since we've been in Joies) but the weather turned ug on Saturday morning so we called it off...late afternoon the sun began to peak its head out and we packed up quick and off we went.  Not ten minutes after we left the clouds blackened and was stormy all over Jhb but we decided to press on seeing as the Vaal is an hour away hoping that it would be better there (knowing that our tents were not waterproof!!)  And it turned out to be such a lovely evening, went out for a booze cruise and watched the full moon rise.
 Next day also started off miz, the wind was up and we were not able to ski..but after about an hour it all settled and turned into a beautiful day of boating and braaiing.  Really had such fun...Dane is now wanting another Jetski :o)


So picturesque...
I was so broken on Monday morning..sun burn and major stiffness after a few hundred attempts to get out the water on the wakeboard..definitely need a few more weekends to get is right :o)
