Even more blessings and miracles

During the first stages of planning, it was a big concern for the Footsteps-team that we have to cross high security and high risk areas where no man has set foot or where no one outside a certain circle, is ever allowed. In a previous post we were so happy to mention Alexcor coming on board and giving permission to cross the diamond fields.

We are once more humbled by the grace of God and the goodwill of man: 

Yesterday, we received written permission for Jacobus and Maricia, who will be his hiking buddy by this time, to hike the coast line cutting through Koeberg Power Plant. 

Today we got an official letter from SAS SALDANHA, confirming the hoped-for permission to walk the coastline of the extensively big area which is part of our National Navy's base of operations around Saldanha Bay. And not only did we get permission, we also got a very personal message endorsing and blessing Jacobus and the Footsteps' enterprise:

SAS SALDANHA applauds your for this tremendous initiative and also recognizes your passion for the environment. We wish you all the best and may the objectives of the walk be attained, in naval terms, allow us to say "Fair wind and following seas!"

We really are on the way with Good Hope!
