You will find lots of "strange" places in Africa. The town of Elim was established in 1824 as a Moravian mission station. Most of the buildings here date back to the 19th century, although some of the original thatched cottages now boast corrugated roofs and colourful paint - one of the few signs of change over the years. Everything about this town feels steeped in history: the Elim Church has the oldest working clock in the country (that’s 235 years old!), the large water mill is one of the oldest of its kind still in use, and the primarily Moravian community still attend the old Moravian church every Sunday where the brass band proudly performs.
Ja, ons het op 'n ander geleentheid Swartbergpas gery. Dit was nogal 'n belewenis. Ek het op die trippie deur die Seweweekspoort egter 'n band afgeskryf net voor die pas (of liewer net kort na die teerpad opgehou het). So, die foto het my baie gekos!
Hi Johan, ons was ook die afgelope naweek op Matjiesfontein! Oppad deur die Seweweekspoort na Calitzdorp waar ons geslaap het! Wonder of jy bewus is van die wonderlike museum onder die Matjiesfontein stasie? Vra maar net! Groete! (ander) Johan
Just an ordinary guy taking ordinary photos in and around Southern Africa.

Sorry, I don't understand Portugese! I speak English and Afrikaans.
