Ouma Pop and three of her beautiful daughters on one of her grandchildren's wedding in Upington, South Africa.

August 26, 2014

Ouma Pop was a strong believer in "padkos" - you don't buy fast food on the road when you're travelling.  You pack a cooler box with sandwiches, frikadelle, and leftovers from yesterday's lunch.
 

The ritual for having "padkos" was always the same - before you have travelled even 100km from home, the first person in the vehicle would complain of hunger.  Everyone will start to look out for a table & chairs beside the road.  The cooler box, flask of freshly brewed, overly sweet coffee and blankets will be taken out and breakfast/brunch/lunch will be enjoyed right there, beside the road.


This picture was taken on one such occassion just outside of Groblershoop, while en-route to Warrenton for Ouma Pop to go visit one of her daughters.
