Day 12 part 2 - The Panorama Route

Our first stop on the Panorama Route was The Pinnacle and God's Window. In the case of these stops, I believe a picture is worth a thousand words, so here you go.

This is Michael contemplating the large chimney-like rock, known as the Pinnacle.

Here's a great panoramic view from God's Window. They say on a clear day you can see all the way to Mozambique.

This is a great picture of Dad at the top of God's Window.

In this picture, we are all climbing down, heading back to the car where the peaks of the craft huts can be seen in the distance.

From God's Window we drove on to see the unique Bourke's Luck Potholes. The rushing water from the Blyde River created whirlpools that over time formed what is called the Potholes.

Here I am at the source before the potholes are formed below.

In this one you can see the guys on the bridge and the potholes in the right hand corner.

Here's a close up of the potholes.

And this is just a great picture of me and David at the Potholes.

Our last stop on the Panorama Route before heading home was the Blyde River Canyon, the largest green canyon in the world.

This is a great panoramic view of the canyon to be able to get an idea of it's granduer. Of course it is not even a fraction of the size of the Grand Canyon, but does still seem pretty large.
The hut-looking figures on the left are called the Three Rondavals.

Here we are with the Three Rondavals in the background. You can also see the Blyde River far below.

That river runs into this lake on the other side of canyon.
And here are us 2 beauties with the beautiful scenery as our backdrop.
We were able to capture all these pictures just in time before the fog rolled in again. What a blessing to be able to see everything we wanted to see all in one day.
