  • An awesome weekend getaway where a whole bunch of guys with CZcams channels decide to go and have some fun. It all literally started as a whisper that we should do a trip together soon. Gradually the whisper got louder and louder and the timing seemed to fall in place. The whole idea was literally a get together and have some fun while experiencing the wild camping on the West Coast of South Africa.
    Camping along this coast can and often is a disaster when it comes to the weather, we were lucky and the overland/4x4/weather gods decided to throw us a bone and it was perfect. With the stage now set for an epic weekend all we had to do was get everyone there and let the festivities begin. Lots of laughs and jokes and some obvious banter with like minded people around the fire made this nothing short of an EPIC and memorable weekend.
    Our first night was spent at Trekos Kraal on the coast and our second night was spent at a private game farm named Onder Water Boers Kraal. If you would like to stay at the game farm you may contact us for the details of the farm.
    A couple of new kids on the block on this one, but as we are all a friendly bunch once you're with us you are typically stuck with us forever :-)
    Boys will be boys and always have their toys...
    Special thanks to Dieter Pey from Dieter Pey Media for allowing us to use some of their drone footage in the video, and Juba from Juba's Journey for capturing the Donkey in action!
    Thank you to Hennie from Onder Water Boers Kraal for allowing us to stay on his game farm!

    • @MyLifeinAfrica
      @MyLifeinAfrica  Před 3 lety

      Hey Alan, sadly they are yes, in all the years I've had them on I've never had a fine. Pretty much anything above your main beams is not legal. Where I drive at night I do often need it and am prepared to pay a fine if that day comes. I do not use it ever on roads at all, it's separately switched (not that this makes it any more legal).
