I love the casual conversation you guys have with each other during the video ☺

Even on a rainy day, George never disappoints! Note to others - if you're driving the Garden Route / the N2, do yourself a favour and break your journey there and stock up your supplies at the supermarkets. The N9 also a very underrated route in South Africa. Safe travels both!

That Transport Museum is a treasure trove of nostalgia! I can only imagine how those old coaches smell,let alone all those cars. Thanks for the tour!

George. Lived and worked there for 8 years. Beautiful town in my days and now a city. They always said CAW stands for cold and wet or four seasons a day! I love George and will return if i can. A trip well done and very interesting. Thank you Lately you drive to places of huge memory to me. . Till the next one my seat remain warm

It really is one of my favourite areas to visit. Lots going on in and around George. For me it has everything. The sea the mountains the forests and scenic drives. Ugh now I want to go to George. Thank you for all the memories 🎉🎉❤❤🎉🎉

George - our new home from July 2024 Thank you for sharing your travels with us -

Mooi dorp, mooi omgewing en mooi kerke

Thank you bring back many memories. Well done George. CAW. Cold and wet

Hi guys my impression of George are that its green and well organised amazing amount of shops. Lovely to hear Sonias stories of the Sunday school and her school also her brothers high school. The DRF church was imposing and well kept the parsonage was quaint love the little cottages. The Anglecan cathedral was great. Love the banter about the letters and the army (when i was in the army dear John letters were put on the notice board of the barracks how cruel lol) spotted a old bakkie with the guy holding the box on the back !!! The suburbs look neat and well established nice Sonia could see her old house. What a amazing surprise for you the transport museum loved the whole place a credit to the town! Interesting about the old slave tree love the description of new rennnaicanse .the woman's army school intriguing and Sonias memories of riding her bike .the fairlane 500 green with white top apsolute love it shame it was stolen!!! .it started as a out post for felling trèes 1777 mind blowing. George third 1811 the last king of USA lol .the quirky train restaurant with peacock's and springbok topped it off. I can see why you like George its a stunning place. Thanks for taking me along cheerio till the next one

Wow oh wow Sonja what a nice surprise for Curtis and for me to see that. How awesome. Well done. That museum just so stunning thank you thank you

Hi Curtis Sonia and Dusty, we love the Garden Route and George is our absolute favourite, it's a fantastic place and just all round lekker people hey, safe journey ❤

I am watching the Springbokke in Cape Town!! Will watch your visit tonight, after my excitement has calmed down a bit!! Speak later!❤

Also been to George many times to visit friends and family, and visited the Transport Museum a few times...always interesting. Quite a few memories were floating back to me now while watching. Thanx

Fun fact:George is the second largest town in the Western Cape, after Cape Town that is.

Amazing place definitely !!! .... for FYI : Sonja Herold grew up in a place called Nigel Gauteng .... so did Dorian Berry ( old SABC news announcer)..... the good old days !!!

Borgward Isabella were lovely cars in their time, many examples standing next to one of the trains

By George, I think you've got it!

My old stomping ground. Pretoria by die see.

Sonia, your surprise will never be beaten again with the train museum ❤

Another favourite place. Okay, the wonderful view from the top of the pass is still there, its just behind the rain right now! WE always used to joke about George number plate...CAW...cold and wet! Certainly no shortage of lovely churches in George. Well do I remember the days of snail-mail. My best friend and I would write these long entertaining letters to each other full of hilarious drawings. And getting a love letter from a boyfriend! Oooh! The excitement! To hold and touch something that he held and touched, it was....erotic!! I had a boyfriend in the army when I was 16, he was in Bloemfontein, and me in Bellville. Beautiful streets lined with old trees. And choo-choos ! Oh wow! My dad would so have enjoyed that museum! Oh, that red thing on the front of the loco is a cow-catcher. In case there are cows on the tracks. Love the gogga! And the royal coaches. THis was soooo special. Thank you very much. The old slave tree looks like a giant kettie!🤣Interesting story. Very well done for an excellent visit to George, in spite of the "dreeezzle". Oh please visit Hoekwil!

Hello there 😊 Love George, it's so beautiful and green. Enjoyed the rain and also loved looking for Sonia's past home 🏡 which her parents built❤ 🎉 lovely suburb! Wow that park with all the trees 🌳 was fantastic. Thank you once again, enjoyed the trip with you guys 😂 God bless you and keep you safe always 🙏 ❤️ I thank The Lord for all the beauty He has blessed us with 🙌🦚🦜🌲🪻🌷⚘️🌹🌳🌻

Hi Dustbugs. So different to see it through your eyes, been there a good few times in my days also rode the steam train + the little trolley cars that go up into the mountains, what lovely memories, Sonja I often drive past houses I lived in as a child just to see how they've changed & remeniss. Could hear your excitement, thank you both for an amazing trip 🚙🥰

Hi you two! Greetings from the Waterberg Foothills. The approach through the pass took me to cloud nine. It was fabulous! I go to George for family visits but have never been to the Transport Museum. What an astonishing interesting place! Even in the rain George is a beautiful place with long, roads/streets lined with trees. The trip Sonia took you on was special. Of course nothing can outdo the mountains. Sonia's enlightening us on the long history on the place is again much appreciated, I would never have known it otherwise. Thank you for this interesting outing. I'm ready for the next one! Keep safe!

It is very true: the registration number for cars is CAW= cold and wet!!

Thank you so very much. Wonderful.

Hi Dust Bugs. I just realized something...have been living in Wilderness for 36 years and i used collect oakleaves from that famous Oak for my compost. An oak tree germinated in that compost and stands here in Wilderness Heights...and so the Tree lives on.

Hi Curtis & Sonja, i really enjoy your channel. Been following you guys for a few months now . I'm from Hopefield & am so sorry i missed you guys, just to say hi. Blessings & safe travels guys.

We just love ❤️ all you travels we are in the US and we travel to Cape Town every year Hope to cross paths someday 😮 Cheers

What a lovely place, we had our holiday in the area in 1994??😂❤❤

Jaaaaa George, mijn verzoekje van enige tijd geleden. Leuk om wat meer van Sonia’s eigen historie te horen, dat maakt het tot een extra persoonlijke belevenis. Die oude boom hebben mijn vrienden nog in volle glorie gezien, enige jaren geleden. Sonia’s verrassing was wel heel bijzonder! Zoveel oude en in perfecte staat verkerende treinen en locomotieven zag ik nog niet eerder bij elkaar in de enorme hal. Extra speciaal dat dit in stand wordt gehouden, gezien de voortdurende desinteresse in de afgelopen circa 30 jaar van jullie overheid voor de spoorwegen … zou leuk zijn als die Oranje Express en de Paul Kruger trein ooit uitgeleend worden aan ons spoorweg museum in Utrecht 😄🚂 Het Cold and Wet imago van George delen ze momenteel met Nederland, hier ook steeds pouring rain and storm ☔️💦. En morgen weer verder met episode 408 bekijken 👍

Fascinating!!

The car registration code for this area was known as “CAW” and we always called it “cold and wet”. I don’t remember many dry days! 😂😂

Lekker man, leeeeeker

Since 2024 started it’s been dry and warm since we have a heatwave now

Baie bome in daardie omgewing dood agv die indringer boorder besie (beetle)
