Eénmaal in het park zelf hebben we na wat staren naar de wilde golven de picnic verorberd.<br><br><br><br> <br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br ><br> Toen we allemaal voldaan waren hebben we Victor voor het eerst op deze reis in de (gehuurde) rugdrager gezet en zijn we de wandeling richting Storms River Mouth bridge begonnen. Dit is een wandeling ...

Destination 352<br><br>km175'574<br><br>In desert surroundings I cross the Great Karoo to Queenstown. Weather becomes more sunny wich helps to melt ice on tent. I change accommodation to Hotels... I head South to the mountains, which approaches me more than the desert.

Du soleil, mais de la neige sur les sommets. Ici, c est le royaume du ciel, un pays montagneux ou on peut faire du chaval pour pas cher. Monter et descenndre des montagnes le long des precipices et assez impressionnant et en prime on peut voir des peintures rupestres que les Bushmen ont laisses.<br>

Sibongile means "we thank you" in Zulu and is quite a common name in South Africa. Meeting this other Sibongile was the beginning of another adventure.<br><br>I meet her in Lesotho in May 2009, in Malealea, a small mountain village. <br>In the lodge one evening, she puts some house music and starts juggling, while her friend Kim plays pois. I look, completely fascinated. <br><br>They tell me they are professional performers, currently working in Malealea for the NGO Clowns ...

Up just past 6am and at the border by 7. Once again hassle free going through and this time we didn't get our passports stamped, they just simply saved us on. Think it has something to do with the car having Newcastle number plates, they think we're saffers not some tourists in a hire car. Lakka bru. We drove through the capital, Maseru (population 288,950) which was a lot more modern than expected. A main street lined with shops and some ...

... at one point as the logs were refusing to light and heat up and the chalet next door seemed to have a bigger fire going on...I think he might have felt threatened that there fire was bigger...Anyway it was dark by the time the braai was hot enough to cook on and I was all for eating inside but explorer Steve wanted to stay out so we did. I wanted to eat inside because there was this huge fruit bat flying around the trees near us...

... of the younger men herding their cattle. We drove towards Thabe Tseka and the road continued to be a challenging piste. The street is full of people moving from one village to another, all connected by a bus service, but most walk. The houses are all clean and well organized. The construction is providing the best protection from wind ...

... We also saw whales playing by the coast when we did a short coastal walk. Back to Cape Town to finish off the "foreign" part of our trip! ******************************* Garden route en 7 jours! Nous avons achete une passe d'autobus avec le BazBus ou tu peux t'arreter a pas mal n'importe quelle ville le long de la cote et rembarquer quand tu veux. Nous sommes donc partis de Stellenbosh (paradis du vin... donc presqu'a regret) pour aller a Knizna. On a ...

... girls a basic explanation of how the stock market works. These girls were amazingly bright - and funny - and I expect them to achieve big things in their lives. One of them - whose name I won't mention - I would have married on the spot, had I been a year or two younger. I regretted that we couldn't talk more but we were all tired from the day's strenuous activities (them a six hour horse ride and me an eight hour truck ride), so we all went to sleep ...

... to the platform. Bjorn had the most difficulty getting onto the platforms, although on the last one he had a perfect landing. Strangely enough some people felt less secure on the platforms than they did on the slides. Lotta and a South Africa lady usually hugged the trees as they waited on the platforms. They also had difficulty crossing a short treetop bridge which led to the next slide. These were never a problem for me. The South Africans, who had ...
