Swimming in the leiwater dam.
Lei means lead in Afrikaans
Leiwater is water that is collected in a dam and then released via channels into the small Karoo town below where it is used to water gardens.
I am wearing a hat because even at 8 AM the temperature is well on its way to 37°C (100 something in °F) and the sun burns hard
Water is precious in this hard land because the annual rainfall is usually around 30 CMs (12 inches)
