Getting lost in Knysna this morning on our way to find Oakhill School was as good a way as any to start the day...A day crisp yet sunny met us both meandering along the lanes of Knysna, enjoying the views over the lagoon...and at the same time trying to make haste towards our first appointment. A winning combo!

Both the senior and junior students at the school responded enthusiastically to our presentations...getting involved in asking interesting questions!

We thoroughly enjoyed our time this morning with the students, and left with two scrolls filled with signatures and well wishes! Thank you to the great students of Oakhill School - and to Linda for helping coordinate.

Our day continued as we held a telephonic interview with Namaqualand FM to update them on the Drive and how the listeners could get involved. Let us just hope there were millions of listeners...

Will have to say that our drive on to Oudtshoorn was a spectacular one. The Oteniqua pass was simply amazing. Green rolling mountains, brief views back of the sea, jagged mountain crags, all set against the crisp blue sky...made this drive probably one of the most memorable. The time flew as the ostrich spotting began!!

Oudtshoorn, our next stop, is a town set in what is fondly known as the "Little Karoo". It is also home to the worlds LARGEST ostrich population... no small feat I should imagine!

Needless to say; one of our activities tomorrow will simply have to be riding an ostrich...something that has almost become a national sport in towns like Oudtshoorn...so on that note; "Giddy-up...and will let you know how it goes!"
