Die son sak stadig oor die goue sand van Kampsbaai-strand.
The sun sets slowly over the golden sand of Kampsbaai-strand.
Die warm somerwind waai.
The warm summer wind blows.
Kersfeessfeër vul die lug.
Festive Christmas atmosphere fills the air.
Louw is opgewonde.
Louw is excited.
Hy sien kans vir avontuur.
He feels ready for adventure.
Langs hom is Annelie, sy beste vriendin.
Next to him is Annelie, his best friend.
Sy kyk oor die branders.
She looks over the waves.
Sy is versigtig en bedagsaam.
She is cautious and thoughtful.
“Kom ons stap so bietjie langs die water,” sê Louw met 'n glimlag.
"Let's walk a bit along the water," says Louw with a smile.
Annelie trek haar skouers op en stem in.
Annelie shrugs her shoulders and agrees.
Die strand is besig met vakansiegangers.
The beach is busy with holidaymakers.
Daar is kinders wat in die see baljaar en mense wat om die barbecue-keuse hulself geniet.
There are children frolicking in the sea and people enjoying themselves by the barbecue area.
Skielik stoot die golwe 'n vreemde voorwerp uit na hul voete.
Suddenly, the waves push a strange object to their feet.
Dit is 'n dagboek, oud en gesluit met 'n klein slot.
It is a diary, old and locked with a small lock.
Louw tel dit op, sy oë blink van nuuskierigheid.
Louw picks it up, his eyes shining with curiosity.
“Dink jy ons kan dit oopmaak?
"Do you think we can open it?"
” vra hy.
he asks.
Annelie kyk skepties na die geslote boek.
Annelie looks skeptically at the closed book.
“Wat as dit iets gevaarlik is?
"What if it's something dangerous?"
” vra sy.
she asks.
Maar Louw se vasberadenheid is duidelik.
But Louw's determination is clear.
Hy wil die waarheid agter die dagboek vind.
He wants to find the truth behind the diary.
“Ek ken 'n taalkundige hier in die omgewing,” sê Louw.
"I know a linguist around here," says Louw.
“Hy kan ons dalk help om dit te vertaal.
"He might be able to help us translate it."
”Hulle stap saam na die dorpie waar Pierre, die plaaslike taalkundige, woon.
They walk together to the village where Pierre, the local linguist, lives.
Hy kyk na die dagboek en frons.
He looks at the diary and frowns.
“Dit is 'n ou taal,” sê hy.
"It is an ancient language," he says.
“Ons sal in 'n biblioteek moet gaan kyk.
"We'll need to look in a library."
”Annelie is bekommerd dat hulle te veel tyd daaraan sal spandeer.
Annelie worries that they will spend too much time on it.
“Ons is tog hier om die vakansie te geniet,” sê sy.
"We are here to enjoy the holiday, after all," she says.
Maar Louw voel hierdie kan sy groot storie wees.
But Louw feels this could be his big story.
Saans wanneer die stormwolke begin saampak, hou hulle aan werk.
In the evenings, when storm clouds begin to gather, they continue working.
Hulle glip in 'n ou biblioteek waar hulle 'n boek vind wat die kode van die dagboek kan ontsyfer.
They slip into an old library where they find a book that can decipher the code of the diary.
Die wind huil buite, maar hulle soek aan.
The wind howls outside, but they keep searching.
Uiteindelik kraak hulle die kode.
Finally, they crack the code.
Dit onthul 'n ou skatkis geskiedenis.
It reveals an old treasure chest history.
'n Boodskap wat na 'n verlore skat wys.
A message that points to a lost treasure.
Die spanning styg, maar die storm buite dreig.
The suspense builds, but the storm outside threatens.
Hul avontuur het nie net 'n raaisel opgelos nie.
Their adventure has not only solved a mystery.
Dit het hul vriendskap versterk.
It has strengthened their friendship.
Louw glimlag na Annelie.
Louw smiles at Annelie.
“Dankie,” sê hy.
"Thank you," he says.
“Ek kon dit nie sonder jou gedoen het nie.
"I couldn't have done it without you."
”Met die dagboek se geheim ontrafel, besluit hulle om die skat te gaan soek.
With the diary's secret unraveled, they decide to go look for the treasure.
Die avontuur het nog net begin.
The adventure has only just begun.
Annelie, nou meer avontuurlustig, is gereed om saam met Louw verder te gaan.
Annelie, now more adventurous, is ready to join Louw further.
Die son breek deur wolke en skyn helder op die strand.
The sun breaks through the clouds and shines brightly on the beach.
'n Nuwe dag en nuwe avonture wag.
A new day and new adventures await.
Louw en Annelie staan hand aan hand op die strand en kyk na die horison.
Louw and Annelie stand hand in hand on the beach and look at the horizon.
Hulle weet, hierdie is net die begin.
They know, this is just the beginning.
