in the veld. I noticed them as I was driving by. I had to slam on the brakes and make a u turn as they were on the other side of the road. As I got out, they immediately started walking further. Darn, it always happens to me. The blue flowers are Echium vulgare, a poisonous plant. This time of the year the veld and sides of some roads are covered with it. I think the background of the Dad has a bit much.
