21. Cederberg Day 3

On the third day of our stay in the Cederberg, after our solos, we went to a little school next to the farm. We helped the kids with their English workbooks and did some creative stuff. We also gave them lemonade and biscuits and we played touch rugby with them, it was great fun! 

After the school, we went back to the campground. We had two hours to relax, and so we did, as everyone was tired after their solo nights.

When the break was finished, and everybody had had their lunch, we went to the bushman paintings. These were basically paintings of elephants on rocks that were really old. Then, we went to a cave-like thing called Stadsaal or city hall. This was a place used by the bushmen to come together. 

After the visit to the bushman paintings and the Stadsaal, we went to the Leopard Trust. This is an organization that is trying to help the Cape Leopard survive. They showed us a powerpoint presentation and took us on a walk. We hiked to a spot where we were going to set up a camera that captures everything that moves. The Leopard Trust uses these cameras to see where and when the leopards move around. We also saw some bok tracks and loads of dassy (rock hyrax) droppings.

When we came back to the campsite, we all got a pizza base, we had to put our own pizzas together and bake them in a pot on coals. My pizza had tuna, tomato, cheese, and peppers on it and tasted really good! :)
