Herman and Yvonne of Soekershof sent us the following letter...
It's by now a tradition that Soekershof; Private Mazes & Botanical Gardens in South Africa is open seven days per week during the Festive Season. This includes Christmas Day and New Year.
Many families, staying in this area, like to undertake special activities during these special days. Besides the quest in the Klaas Voogds Maze we offer amongst others 'flower tasting'; 'cactus handling with bare hands' and some wisdom in the Philosophers Garden.
In addition to this land art artist Jody Joyner from Tucson, Arizona, USA, will be engaged (until the beginning of February) in the creation of a new landmark. Via our
Facebook Page you can follow the progress of her work.
We wish all our friends and fans a Merry Christmas and a prosperous 2011,
Herman & Yvonne
