BACK TO GO 4 GOOD

Being up on the mountains, and away from every day life, one tends to get lost in the magic that surrounds you, and forget the craziness down below. It’s the most amazing feeling, to step away from your own life, and to get a taste of what treasures, lies buried deep inside your heart.
It was with a sudden jolt, that we were pulled back to reality, to acknowledge and accept our responsibility to go 4 good. What amazes me, is the goodwill and tremendous spirit, which greets us, everywhere, and every time we promote this positive awareness. I think people are so tired of doom and all the horror that surrounds it, of the storms raging out there, and within. It’s about time that we brighten up our lives with a brush of positivity.
There are so many things to do, half of which, I don’t have a clue how to approach, but I guess that’s how we learn. I’ve decided to keep my eye on the goal, and the rest will fall into place. Thus far, it’s been brilliant, because every time we put our ideas out there, someone seems to have a solution, and so, our team of go gooders grows, and before you know it, this too will be what it was intended to be.
It is such a beautiful day outside, and we’re still working on setting up a working communications blogging network, within Rustenburg. Maria changed the templates, and before we tested it, to see if it works, she changed all. It didn’t work, so now she has to get everything back to it’s original form. It’s a bummer, but this is how we learn?!
Furthermore, we’re planning our next adventure, and where we go from here. It’s hectic, but good hectic. Like I said before, it’s amazing to realize you’re the one making decisions about your own life, be the master of your destiny.

HEDGEHOGS NEST & THE HIGHEST POINT

When we first reached Hedgehogs Nest, we were tired, without water, and needed to recharge batteries.
Here is Maria and Dante, just outside the reception door.

Isn't life's little coincidences a marvel? This man, Emile, worked at the Spar, one of our sponsors, and is now working at Hedgehogs Nest, where we met him, for the second time since we've started our hike. He's a stunning man, and has done a lot for us on this journey.
Maria and Dante, at the last high point on this hike. This means, the end is in sight
