Dawn in Kuruman

I'm trying to remember who told me about the Eye of Kuruman just recently. How it is the biggest manmade hole in the world and everything. Well, not exactly. Or did I get that wrong? Let me tell you, what it is then: The Eye is a natural fountain delivering approximately 20 million litres of crystal clear water daily. Apart from domestic use it also feeds the Kuruman River and spills water into two 7km irrigation canals.

The first white person to discover’ The Eye, on Sunday, 22 November 1801, was Samuel Daniel, the secretary, journal writer and painter of the Truter-Somerville expedition. It was this unfailing source of water that led to the establishment of a mission here in the early 19th century. This also led to The Eye being described as the ‘fountain of Christianity’. The world's biggest man made hole is referred to "The big hole" in Kimberly, where they dig for diamonds. Just for the records. :)

Dunno if I'll have the time to look at it today, but I might when I come back from the park. On my way now...
