GREAT SUCCESS













Thanks to everone who came to he exhibition on Friday and Saturday. It was a great success. The feedback was great, more people came than I could have hoped for, and people bought prints. It was a bit of a rush to get everything up on time, and to be honest a few people arrived while the labels were still going up!! But it would have been much worse if I did not have the amazing help of Marc, Danna and Julia. A HUGE thanks to them all!! Thanks again to Rhiannon for organising the venue. It was a great space for an exhibition. Thanks to Cas and Spies for the loan of the spots as well! The wine was kindly sponsored by Bruce Jack from Flagstone, Thank you!!
I'm sure the money raised will be enough to see us throught the trip, even if it costs R700 to fill up a bakkie these days.
So now its just doing the final preparations for the walk and the data collection.
Lucky to have had such good rain this winter, it promises to be a great flower season.
I am planning to leave Cape Town on the 7th of August and start walking on the 8th.
I will update the blog with progress as often as I can, so keep checking....
