We had a fairly good turn out today (12) for our walk along the Contour Path above Kleinmond, and the weather was fine, albeit a bit cold at the start. We only walked 4,8 kms to Fairy Glen, but for some reason it felt like 10!. I guess that fact that David and Ross both had falls (the latter on a steep rocky section, which had us pretty worried) helped to slow us down.
We were impressed with the early Spring flowers, especially the large numbers of Disperis capensis, of which we must have seen over 100 blooms, but a recent fire had erased all the Proteas from the first part of the walk. The last section, however, more than made up for it.
