An unexpected visit from a friend from far away resulted in an opportunity to remove a green pin from our travel board. A green pin on the board indicates where we still want to make landfall and plant the Two Travelling Twits flag.
Jenny, a friend and ex-colleague from Stellenbosch popped in for a visit in March 2019, bringing with her the news of a planned group trip to the Richtersveld in September 2019. A throwaway remark contained an invitation for the Twits to join the jaunt. This invitation was leapt upon with alacrity, without any consideration of possible impediments in the way of such a trip – for us, from east to west right across the northern part of South Africa.
