Anne

For me it was a great experience since I did it years ago. Gasping for breath and battling with my legs that refused to support me I crawled up the mountain like a little baby on all fours. Warren and Ashton helped me, the treasurer through my difficulty. There was nothing money could do for me know. Only perseverance could take me through this ordeal. For me the hero of the mountain was Ethan Fennel, a 5 years old boy. He climbed the mountain up & down without complaining. Not every boy would be able to do that, especially when the road became hazardous. It was a taught hike for me as it was my first hike I've done since i left the youth club and that's many moons back. Luckily my son, Ashton were there to help me through the obstacle's we had to anticipate.

Nevertheless I think Ann was very brave and her positive spirit got her through. I will never leave her behind for the world. I tell you boy o boy she's on the ball in the kitchen. I couldn't keep up with all the food & tea Ann and Joanne was preparing for us. Great woman those two. Thank for your services. The trouble up the mountain was rewarded in tenfold.

We ate and played cards and dominoes, but Ashley and Richard were too tired and went straight to bed. Early the next morning everybody was wide-awake and was served with coffee and muffins. All the boys and men went to explore the mountain, while the woman stayed to prepare the lunch. We saw a lot of tabloids, while we were walking around all the dams. It really is a spectacular scenery.
On our way home, we found a new path, and we called it the "children's path".
For me the descend was easier. The dam in Kirstenbosch gardens looked spectacular from Nursery Rivine. The boys were once again racing down with Ethan following doing the "Bokspring" Warren lost his sleeping bag and his dad had to go back to go and look for it. Luckily he found it 30min later. While we were waiting for the bukkie, the children played some fun games. When the bukkie finally arrived, everybody was looking forward to home sweet home.

Just a word of thanks to the department of forest who took the wood up the mountain for us.

Brother Louie & Sister Rene patiently awaited our arrival for 2 hours. Jonathan and crew came down Skeleton George to appreciate the scenery from that angle. They were surely impressed with what the have seen. Kiano was already making plans for the next hike. I think everyone maintained a Great Spirit and enthusiasm. It was really a memorable event none of us will easily forget. Thanks boys and girls. May you stay forever young.
