Summary edit

Description
Afrikaans: Hokaai naby Kokstad vir middagete by die Engen-vulstasie se Wimpy Bar, naby die N2 se aansluiting met die afdraai na Kokstad. Hierdie foto is geneem toe ek stilgehou het terwyl ek om die suidhellings van Berg Currie op die R617, net noord van Kokstad gereis het, onderweg na Swartberg Kingscote & Underberg. Kyk na Garmap se Africa Topo & Rec wat behuising aantoon wat angedui word as "Mt Currie Outlying ". Die berge in die verte staan bekend as "Nolangeni" op 2,016 m, en lê anderkant die Brooksnekpas waar die N2 afdaal na die Oos-Kaap en dan na die berg Ayliff & Umtata. Roete R56 na Matatiele & die Qachasnek-grenspos na Lesotho draai hier regs (van beeld af), terwyl die Kwazulu-Natalse kus na links via Staffords Post en Harding bereik word. Kokstad raak baie koud en word in die wintermaande deur sneeuval geïsoleer.
English: Stopped near Kokstad for lunch at Wimpy Bar in Engen petrol station near where N2 meets road into Kokstad town centre. This photo is taken as I stopped while skirting southern slopes of Mount Currie on R617 just to north of Kokstad on my way to Swartberg Kingscote & Underberg. Check of Garmap's Africa Topo & Rec shows housing marked as "Mt Currie Outlying". Mountains in distance known as "Nolangeni" at 2,016 m and lies beyond Brooks Nek Pass where N2 passes down into Eastern Cape Province then onto Mt Ayliff & Umtata. Road (R56) to Matatiele & Qachas Nek border into Lesotho heads off to right of picture while Kwazulu Natal coast is away to left through Staffords Post and Harding. Kokstad gets very cold and isolated by snowfalls in winter months.
