  • EPISODE 3
    We spent a glorious three days in the beautiful Knysna area. Please come and explore with us from forest to sea and exhilarating activities to simple peaceful relaxation... We did it all! 😀
    We show you all in four videos:
    Episode 1: The trip from Cape Town to the Diepwalle Forest Station where we claim our camping deck spot emerged in the forest. We also visit and admire the spectacular King Edward VII Big Tree.
    Episode 2: Camping at the camping decks at Diepwalle Forest Station and visiting the extraordinary Forest Legends Museum - there is an exhibit there that you would not want to miss!
    Episode 3: This may be the most adrenalin rushing video we've ever made for BRC! We take on the Knysna Ziplines over a 200m deep gorge in Harkerville (not once, but four times!) and also visit The Garden of Eden and Noetzie before arriving at our Knysna tiny house for the first of two nights... Lovely!
    Episode 4: We visit the Wild Oats Community Farmer's Market and beautiful Gericke's Point in Sedgefield before exploring the Old Main Library in Knysna, the Knysna Waterfront and lastly the iconic Knysna Heads. It was indeed sad for this lovely trip to come to an end...
    Thanks for watching! :-D

    Hey guys! I'm so loving your Knysna series 😊 Every time you drive near something familiar I get so excited to see it again 😃
    I'm so glad you had the opportunity to go ziplining! I was very fortunate to also go ziplining over the Magaliesburg mountains! There was also such a sheer drop into a gorge below, and I am terribly scared of heights! Like you Annelie, I was shaking 😅 But once you step off that little platform and realise you're safe, it feels like you're flying! And I took in the incredible view of the stream below and the beautiful cliff faces. It's a recommended experience indeed 😊
    I had seen Noetzie on the map that the Knysna tourism office gave me, and I was curious about it, but never got that far 😊 So nice to get a glimpse of that stunning beach and castles courtesy of "gogga" 😊
    Loved the piano instrumental during the drone footage over the tiny house! So high 5 Annelie for that musical selection- we love anything with a piano in it 😁
    What a cute place! I'm somewhat obsessed with the tiny house concept 😅 I love how cosy they look!
    I can't wait to see your next episode- from the preview it looks as though you may have gone to the Sedgefield Market, and if you did I'll jump for joy 😁 It was a highlight on my little Knysna trip 😊
    Thank you both ❤

      Hi Kate! Great to hear from you, it is really great that you are 'experiencing' our Knysna trip so well with us, especially this episode seeing that you've also done ziplining before 😀, and of course seeing that you were there recently yourself... BRC will need to plan a trip to Magaliesburg, I think 🤔
      Yes, Noetzie was only 'seen' by Gogga 🤣, so we've only seen the same as you are seeing in video... But, yes, in many ways Noetzie is like a mystical place and I'm glad we've made the detour.
      That tiny house was fantastic! You really do not need anything more, it was perfect to us in every way. Nightjar Cabin also has the most wonderful host, called Leo. I also sent him a link to the video and he loves it... 😀
      You are right, the Wild Oats Market is coming up in Ep4, together with a number of additional things that you and your mom will love 😉 Ep4 will be the last video to go live on Sunday morning...
      Thanks so much for your wonderful comments, your continued support is so very much appreciated. All the best, Werner

      Jane is an adventure junkie - she did her third Sky Dive to celebrate her 80th Birthday. She did her first on her 60th, second when she turned 70.

    “Walking up the gallows” is NOT the reassuring comment Annelie wanted to hear, Werner 😂
    I am so impressed with (and in awe of) you, Annelie - you have successfully confronted and overcome your fears - twice in succession - first, horse riding and now, ziplining! 👏🏻 I know I would have “wimped out” had I even got as far as considering the possibility 😉 I’d be so afraid I’d lose my grip 😳
    You looked “very cool” in your gear, Werner 😁and you clearly felt undaunted - despite your admission to feeling a little apprehensive beforehand - not helped by your earlier joking question to the lady checking you in - “How many people come back from zip lining?” You are very naughty!
    Well done, both of you! This was clearly a thrilling experience - you both rose so well to the occasion! And there you are, already planning your next zip lining adventures at Mossel Bay and over the Tree Tops 😄
    Your coffee and red latte must have tasted absolutely delicious after that TAKE #3 adrenaline rush 😁 Barista Walter is delightful (and I admire his perspective!). All the other lovely folk you encountered/dealt with left an impression as well. We truly do live in a country of wonderful people.
    Annelie just shakes her head at you and your cap 🧢 As cheesy as it may sound, you really are so cute together 🫶🏻
    As far back as I can remember, I have always felt immense peace and connection in forested places. My soul requires brooks, streams, ferns, mosses, lichens, mushrooms, trees, composting vegetation and birdsong for deep nourishment. I loved this unhurried, gentle amble through The Garden of Eden!
    I’m so glad Ms Gogga was willing to soar off into the distance whilst you rested your legs - she always adds another dimension and perspective to your Vlogs! This was wonderful!
    And what a treat to arrive “home” to your “oulike” cabin after such a thrilling day! This has been an unforgettable trip so far! I am going to be so sad when it’s all over. Oh, wait! I can come back and enjoy it again and again 🙌🏻🫶🏻

      Ah Des, thanks so much for your kind words I hope you are doing well, I am responding from my account but its Annelie here😂 I think the lovely guys that assisted at the zipline really helped me feeling less afaraid😅 I cannot agree more with you about nature being the place to find respite and soul food ❤ hope you will have a lovely week🌸🦋

      So good to hear from you - I just quickly added an edit ✍️
      The Zipline team were lovely - quietly professional. I could see how they’d put one at ease.
      I hope your week got off to a good start. It’s such a beautiful day 😊

      Hi Des, so good to read your comments! Well, just between you and me, I was actually a bit more afraid about the ziplining than I made it look in the video, but it only took the first one to realise one does not need to fear it so much 🤣 But as you noted, I took care to make Annelie as comfortable as possible 😁 Didn't she just do great, and being the first to go even... 👏
      Yes, Walter was amazing. Sometimes you just meet people that are naturally friendly and him speaking with so much passion about what he does, we really see this as one of the big highlights of the whole video 🙂 I really can not see us ever driving past Garden of Eden again without getting a coffee and a good chat with Walter...
      I really thought that you will like this video, and your comments exceeds my expectation!
      I'm busy working on Knysna Ep 4 now when I realised I've not yet responded to you 😀 You probably noted that Ep3 was the longest video we've ever posted, but we simply could not leave anything out - you should tell me if a particular video is too long... It seems that Ep4 will also be around the 40 min mark, we did a lot of things on that last day as well 😀 But, then again, I had to bring everything down from 7.5 hours total footage 🤣
      We have booked our trip for the coming weekend, so Ep 4 needs to be finished and loaded at the latest by Friday evening... This weekend we are a full house, as Mia and Frikkie are coming along as well... 🙂 Lekker!
      All the best, Des, from Werner
