Fransmanshoek

Stopped on this point for lunch. A bacon pasta, fresh green salad and coffeeIn the distance I can see the Outeniqua mountains and, barely, where George should be. A French ship foundered here in 1793 and all 400 on board survived. It was a man-of-war on its way from Mauritius to France. Now walking to Cape Vaccas, about 6 km away.. in the direction of an approaching, purple-gray storm. The guide is urging up on into the icy, choppy wind.
