New Years 2005

Well what can I say other than 2005 has come to an abrupt end, just like any other I guess!

We saw 2006 in on a Trout Farm near Dullstoom (this is in Mpumalanga) that I have aptly named ‘a little piece of Eden’ just because it is! I have not seen such a beautiful landscape in years and it is as tranquil as a Buddhist Temple. The wooden houses just put the cherry on top as they are all more or less the same and fit the terrain perfectly.

The little trout dams dotted all over this majestic topography are so inviting that one has to try ones hand at fishing (even if you do not know how they look like myself).
We did however not catch any trout but I understand that this is not the soul intention of Fly Fishing, there are relaxing qualities in casting…well that is once I got it right!

There is something about having a New Years party in a place that is so perfect, it gives one the spiritual surety that the following year can only be good and great in all its multifaceted complexities!

Watch out 2006 as we are not going to idly let you tick by but rather ride you for every second!
