(The first half of our day in Jonkershoek is described here.)
After a drizzly morning the sun came out and revealed the peaks.

First priority after our walk was a stop for lunch. We picnicked on BLTs and fruit cake on the roadside, at a small bridge.

After refreshments we decided to explore the stream below the bridge.

We wandered up the stream - it was rocky and quite overgrown.

There were cobbles under the bridge and a swimming hole.

We drove a little further on and stopped again at another stream. This one was a little bigger. We boulder-hopped upstream. It was gorgeous!

There was plenty to captivate our photographers' attention.

Someone had made some natural sculptures with rocks and sticks.

This was truly the mostly beautiful spot to spend a Tuesday afternoon.

We swam. The water was cold but crystal clear and wonderfully refreshing.

After drying off and warming up in the sunshine, we headed home.
