6014 KILOMETRES BAREFOOT, BUT NOT DONE!

26 April 2010

What a finish!

6014 km and 467 days later, Jaco arrived at the Castle. Family and friends welcomed him back. There were tears, congratulations, laughter and sighs of relief. He has fulfilled his promise.

Jaco would like to thank Thinus Dippenaar from "Die Burger" for the great article he did. (It was in this mornings' paper - 27 April 2010)

Last night, Jaco stayed over with family. Yzelle says that the beard and the hair flew in one shoosh of the old minora blade razor.

This coming week Jaco will be in Stilbaai. Spending some time with his wife, sons and mother. Jaco and Yzelle will be in Ermelo the week following - spending some quality time with the new in-laws. And Jaco thought 6000km barefoot would be tough!! (Don't worry all you big Jaco fans - he couldn't have asked for a better set of 2nd parents.)

Jaco will be returning to Stilbaai and "will carry on with Kaalvoet Ministries with or without shoes."

RSG had an interview with Jaco this morning and will be broadcasting it tomorrow morning(28 April 2010) between 6 and 8am.

When Jaco is in Ermelo, he will be doing the correspondency himself.
Please feel free to contact Jaco or Yzelle at any time.
