Hartbeetspoort Dam

This town is in the North West Province about 1 hr drive from Pretoria. In Afrikaans it means "gateway of the hartbees" which is a species of antelope. It is an irrigation dam for farmers nearby. There are some small shops and larger bizzare areas selling "local goods". In fact quite amusing as they all try and convince you why you should buy from their little shop! After looking through the stores we stopped at the dam.




It is an impressive site and appears to be a popular location for boating as well. Another visit we could cross off the list!
The best part of the day came on the way home when we saw the name of this store.
