（单词翻译）

 All ready in my walk, I can see how changeable conditions here can be. A build-up of clouds often leads to thunderstorms in the afternoon, a bit of problems for walkers like me, but it does add us an air of mystery to the place.

Did you know that, apparently1, the Lord of the Rings was inspired here and *.
Really?
Yeah.
So Tolken must have been here!
He must have been here, of course.
I must admit there is a real Lord of the Rings feel to this part of the valley. But it’s unlikely that was ever actually here. He was born 350 kilometers away and left South Africa was he was three. Still, there is no denying that the atmosphere is both magical and eerie2.
You can just look around. It’s very mystical as well. You can imagine little Hobbits running around, can’t you?
I hope we don’t get ambushed3 by Hobbits. 
It would be an interesting hike. 
…ever gonna escape the mist.
My walk now heads upwards4, to one of the many hidden caves scattered5 around these mountains. It’s an opportunity for Zee to show me some of the intriguing6 remains7 left behind by the valley’s earliest residents, the San Bushmen.
