Our trip continued

for about 3 hours on this road to our next destination, without seeing a car, animal or person. There were a few farms on the way, but far back in the hills.

The road went partly through dry riverbeds and it was rather challenging.

The only reason hubby went with us to the game reserve was that we promised we would go to Sutherland afterwards.

Following is a link as there is too much to explain about Sutherland.

Gorgeous vista. Looks so free.

[Mags]

Beautiful view!

[Beryl Lloyd]

What a view - the long and lonely road ! fav

[Lou Ann]

Quite a long stretch without any services! Your photo shows the journey very well.

[katy]

Unbelievable that you could travel that long without seeing another soul!
Thanks for the link to Sutherland! It sounds absolutely magical! What a wonderful place to visit

[narayani]

What a landscape

[Kerry McCarthy]

Nice shot of a long lonely road but pretty nonetheless.

[Christine Sztukowski]

Awesome capture of this wilderness, thank you for the link

[Bucktree]

Excellent capture. Reminds me of West Texas. Some people call it "the big empty". I love these wide open spaces and at night the dark sky with all the stars is remarkable.

[Susan Wakely]

The long and winding road.

[Merrelyn]

This really shows the vastness of the landscape. It sounds like an interesting place for astro photography.

[mittens (Marilyn)]

Terrific looking shot. I'm glad your car didn't break down or run out of gas.

[Carole Sandford]

Wonderful capture!

[Cordiander]

Very nice. The clouds look like they are painted. Sutherland sounds very interesting!

[Vesna]

Wonderful and scary - at the same time!

[Paula Fontanini]

Spectactular landscape...it truly looks the road to eternity!

[Michelle]

Lovely capture, I just want to run along that road!

[Olwynne]

Wow! Amazing road. Not one to break down on maybe!

[haskar]

Beautiful photo of the road.

[Lisa Brown]

very bright and vivid yet desolate. great shot of contrasts

[Rob Z]

This could so easily be in Australia....

[Renee Salamon]

That’s one long road

[gloria jones]

Fabulous leading line and vanishing point

[Corinne C]

Fabulous leading line illustrating so well your story!

[Babs]

I thought the same as Rob @robz it could be in Australia.


Bribery is the only way with hubbies sometimes isn't it. ha ha
Thanks for the link, so interesting.

[Jerzy]

I hope you guys were in air-conditioned comfort :-)

[LManning (Laura)]

What an amazing landscape.

[Glover Shearron, Jr.]

A long road, but not very winding...

[Ann H. LeFevre]

Yup, I'd book it in a heart beat if I was a wealthy woman! I would like this road- even if it was bumpy. I like the wide open view and endless vista.

[Joy's Focus]

Looks like parts of California or Nevada desert.

[Rick]

Beautiful scenery and capture.

[Sally Ings]

I love the Karoo and these long deserted gravel roads are typical of the area.
