A few lessons learnt about hiking and hiking with guys

Listed in order of importance

1. Always be on your guard – you never know when a guy is going to drop his pants in public
2. Spiders are all around us – they’re harmless unless provoked and some of them are really pretty (wolf spider)
3. Know your route – the arrow might point to galg but what does galg actually mean? – it may include all the routes in the area (don't trust the guys)
4. Guys sometimes don’t have filters for what they say – and sometimes don’t care about saying offensive things – a warp sense of humor and/or earplugs are essential
5. Potjiekos made in the rain tastes very good – thanks Carica!
