TZANEEN - September 2008

We set off for Rodney & Betsie Hogg's (Nico's uncle & aunt) Avocado farm in George's Valley, Tzaneen on the 20th September. We were last there in the 2nd half of 2005 before Chante's birth, and were very excited to see the family and for the kids to experience the beauty, space and tranquility of the farm.
















Rod & Betsie live on the farm 'Misty Creek' together with their two children - Neil and Dionne, as well as Rod's parents and Betsie's brother - Johan. Nico's grandmother - Ouma Julia - was also visiting at the time we were there so it was great to get to see the whole famdamily on the farm.

















As you can see on this photo - kuier-op-die-stoep with lots of coffee, tea and goodies to eat were in the order of the day.
Although there is lots to do on the farm, even the kids realised that sitting and enjoying the view from the upper-house is the best way to chill-out














Here's a pic of Rodney and his little girl (who's not so little any more :) ) and of Neil - who is in matric and looking forward to studying IT in Pretoria next year
