Matjiesfontein

was next on our route back home. It is a very old small town with a lot of history dating back to the late 1800s.

Founded by a Scots railway man who built the railway and station there.

As there is too much to write, I have included a link. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Matjiesfontein

I have a stomach bug, so please excuse me if I go MIA.

Looks and sounds an interesting place. Hope your stomach bug settles quickly.
