Und da gibt es tats\u00e4chlich Leute (in Marketing-Abteilungen der Solarpanel-Hersteller), die behaupten, ein kleines Solarpanel w\u00fcrde das Landschaftsbild weniger st\u00f6ren als eine Windpompie. Gut, dass es andere Leute gibt, die darauf verweisen, dass so manche Windpompie seit 70 Jahren Wasser aus dem Boden bef\u00f6rdert.

Irene teilt also ihr Haus mit ihren G\u00e4sten, und von einem Willem, dessen Telefonnummer auch am Eingang au\u00dfen prangt, ist weit und breit nichts zu sehen. G\u00e4nse nebenan schnattern, Hunde bellen, ob die Viecher zum <em>Kliphuis<\/em> oder zum Nachbarn geh\u00f6ren? W\u00e4sche trocknet im Wind, die W\u00e4scheleinen stehen im Staub, den das Haus umgibt, auf dem kleinen Flecken Gras stehen die beiden Camping-Land Rover im Schatten der B\u00e4ume.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p

Diese H\u00e4user wurden in der Karoo mit einem runden Dach aus Steinen gemauert, weil es keine B\u00e4ume in der Gegend gab, aus denen man Holz f\u00fcr eine \u00fcbliche Dachkonstruktion gewinnen konnte. Heutzutage dienen sie gerne als Touri-Attraktion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Irene scheint klein-aber-fein \u00fcber die Runden zu kommen, Fraserburg wirkt friedlich. Was wird aus ihr, wenn sie nicht mehr so r\u00fcstig ist? K\u00fcmmert sich dann der Schwarze Arbeiter, der den Pool reinigt, &#8211; oder dessen Frau? &#8211; um die alte Dame? Altersheime gibt es in diesen Gegenden wohl kaum. Und eines in der n\u00e4chst-gr\u00f6\u00dferen Stadt wird Irene wohl kaum bezahlen k\u00f6nnen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Buchung kontra Zufall<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Vielleicht h\u00e4tte ich in Fraserburg bleiben sollen? H\u00f6ren, was Irene erz\u00e4hlt? Einfach mal durch das St\u00e4dtchen latschen und Karoo-Alltag gucken? Statt schon wieder weiter zu wollen? Vielleicht sollte man mal eine Tour machen, bei denen man keine Ziele festlegt, sondern sich einfach darauf verl\u00e4sst, dass sich unterwegs eine Camping-M\u00f6glichkeit ergibt. Und ansonsten den Zuf\u00e4llen freien Lauf l\u00e4sst.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Aber es bleiben ja nicht mehr viele Tage&#8230; Also 100 Kilometer weiter nach <a href=\"https:\/\/de.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Loxton\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/de.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Loxton\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Loxton<\/a>. Ich habe ja den Karoo National Park gebucht, vom 14. bis 17. November, damit war ich festgelegt.

Da es schon relativ sp\u00e4t ist, entscheide ich mich gegen die <em>Bokpoort Road<\/em> quer durch die Berge (\u00fcber deren Zustand ich nichts wei\u00df) und weiche auf den weiten Asphalt-Umweg via <a href=\"https:\/\/de.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Victoria_West\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/de.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Victoria_West\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Victoria West<\/a> aus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Victoria West: Als ich am dortigen SPAR vorbei fuhr, fiel mir auf &#8211; das war ja der, wo wir schon einmal waren und angebettelt wurden! Ich wurde auch jetzt wieder angebettelt. Da meine s\u00fcdafrikanischen Freunde mir versichern, ich s\u00e4he wie einer der ihren aus, kann des nicht daran liegen, dass ich gleich als typischer Tourist identifiziert werde. Ist es der Overlanding-Landy? Oder dass jeder Fremde angebettelt wird? Die wei\u00dfen Ortsans\u00e4ssigen kennen die Schwarzen Jungs &#8211; die \u00fcbrigens keineswegs in Lumpen und ausgehungert daherkommen &#8211; wahrscheinlich; bei denen versuchen sie es gar nicht
