Vryburg to Hartbeespoort dam.

The Vryburg show ended late Saturday night and after closing the stall we retired back to the bus very tired . Sunday morning we slept in and only started to pack up the stall after 10:00. While Anita and I where packing the stall away Aluschka started lunch and when we finally finished at 2:00 we all had a lovely Sunday lunch. The rest of the afternoon was spend taking naps and packing away the rest of the stuff and getting ready for  Tuesday's travelling.
We left at 6:00 on Tuesday morning after refueling the two buses at the diesel depo on the outskirts of Vryburg .The roads through the old "Wes Transvaal" had almost no traffic and we made good time driving through the old farm town's . It was a nice enjoyable drive all the way until we came to the small town of Hekpoort when we almost had a series accident. a Drunken native with a really small pickup came from a side road and drove rite in front off  the bus I slammed on the brakes and with stuff falling in the bus and the children  screaming I managed to avoid the accident . When we arrived at the campground I was still shaking and upset,the children was exited to be at the campground and already forgot the ordeal .
