Camel Beach Rides in Cape Town.

Kayla looking back at Mom & Dad. 
Gerda's Camel keeping a watchful eye on the camera. Karbonkel Berge in the background. Kommetjie's boundary fence on the left, fynbos grassland on the right.

We first went past a little school between tall trees. Quinton knows were all the low branches are and warns you when to duck!

Sitting so high on the Camel is at first a little bit scary and on the first little downhill had me holding on for dear life.

I quickly got use to being as tall as a tree and soon was comfortable enough to turn round in the saddle to see how mom and dad was doing. Martiensie looked a little pale.

Once out of the forest we were in the open sun on the side of large open piece of grass.

I could see the mountains next to Houtbay and a little bit of Long Beach. It was so strange to see Kommetjie from the other side!
Quinton stopped the Camels for a five minute rest and they all peed!"

On the way back Quinton allows Kayla to lead the Caravan herself as we approach the car-park in front of Imhoff's farm stall. By now we are experienced Camel riders!
