For the decent the hike was in some way broken down into various groups of people. In front, we formed a group of 5 formidable hikers: Riana & I, The Chris, Jaco Mmm and Ileana. The tail was bought in by the very patient Pottie... After about 5 minutes of down-hill and a story about the Boland 90, Ileana was promoted to leader of the pac (30-seconds term) of the five formidable (semi-crazy) hikers in front. Firstly we followed because of admiration, then because of respect and even some fear. We became aware of the fact that Illeana actually dated and dumped (i.e. broke the heart) of Chuck Norris! Her other ex-boyfriends are dead and some of her admirers created a website called, www.wewalkedwithilleanaandlived.com (this website was bought and secretly has been disposed of by Google). We also heard the Chuck Norris now wears the only boxer with Ileana's face on ever made! Yes, we were in the presence of giants! The group of five can be seen on the Movember photo... note that our mo's are made from the stuff that grows in Ileana's nose!

	3. The hut on the hill Nov 13 2010, 01:54 PMDassieshoek, South Africa4 photos We reached the beautiful stone hut, our base-camp before summiting the next morning, at about 14:00. I was surprised at how fancy the hut was... it had electricity, double bunk beds and even warm water if you made some fire under the "donkie." Most of us did not wait for the...
