Visiting a small town I've never been to before

On the 3rd of July, 2017, my mom, sister and I were in the Mpumalanga region for a week. We visited God's Window:

Blyde Rivier Canyon:

and more, but on the 3rd of July, we went and explored a variety of waterfalls in the area, and stopped over for lunch in the iconic Pilgrim's Rest.

Some of the water falls we visited: From Top to Bottom - Horseshoe Falls, Lone Creek Falls, and Lisbon Falls.

Our view from the little restaurant where we had lunch in Pilgrim's Rest - The Vine Restaurant and Pub. Their bobotie was to die for, so rich and tender... yum.

Some more shops and overall beautiful scenery in Pilgrim's Rest.

Again, I did not take a selfie in the area, neither did I check in on a location site. For me and my family, we like taking pictures of things, and not joining in the picture.

We didn't stay very long before we had to leave to continue our tour of the waterfalls, but it was interesting to explore an old town that's very much a part of South African history, and continues to be even now in the modern age.

Sometimes it doesn't hurt to return to our roots and just spend some time among history. It's good for the soul.
