Seven short days in Africa seemed like years. I'm sitting on the top deck of the Explorer missing friends and reminiscing about a rejuvenating week of experiences and memories. We began last Monday on the Bazz bus, a traveling bus that winds up the southeast coast through the scenic Garden Route. We ended back at our boat with tears in our eyes, and spent a good few hours watching the lights of Africa disappear and the sounds of Jamey drum circles echoing off the ship. My birthday may be a go...
Port Elizabeth, South Africa adeering
We're in Windhoek, the capital city of Namibia, and although not having the most exciting existence (in the sense that we haven't seen any of the "Big 5", and we're not currently travelling), we're safe, well, and happy. We're staying with some really cool people who work at the uni here, and we're editing some conference papers about traditional law and state law and how they interact in a legally pluralistic constitution. Pretty interesting stuff, and the profs we're staying with have been ...
Cape Town, South Africa bluelizzy
Sorry. I think my last entry was a bit flat. Not surprisingly, really, as I was getting over my lovely Easter Saturday mugging-at-knifepoint. Okay, it was only a steak knife, but it would've hurt! And no, I wasn't quick enough to whip out a machete and drawl in my best stroin (Ozstroin accent), "that's not a knife. This is a knife!" I screamed a bit, looked around at all the high walls and electric fences and madly barking dogs, thinking, "well, they sure kept me out!" Two guys came at me wit...
Cape Town, South Africa bluelizzy
I haven't been particularly busy but somehow my days have just eluded me. As they do when you are in South Africa. Although its been over a month, I haven't made it more than 700 km but if I am to take my time anywhere, this is the place. So where did I leave off? Wilderness. Right then. I really just chilled out chilling by the fire, shooting pool, playing poi and rhythm (I was quickly corrected that they were not devil sticks) sticks. Matt, the guy from Calgary who is riding a bike through ...

... a cruel joke created by the Lord of the Co-Ord. Another nagging need that was rearing it’s nasty but essential head was the undeniable desire to consume highly processed food. A decision was made to hold back on the feeding frenzy until we’d drunk our fill. Agreement was reached and we continued making a spectacle of ourselves and in one case accidentally insulting another race......to its face. After avoiding several other potentially ...
Knysna, Western Cape, South Africa mikeandtrace
... to go back to Carmel again where we arrived just in time for dinner once again. Afterwards we had a chapel where Reg spoke on the authority of scipture and how we can know it is true and without error and I really enjoyed that. So in one day I got to crawl through some caves, pet a wallaby, eat ostrich and crocodile, ride an ostrich, and feed an ostrich. I’d say it was a pretty good day :) Tomorrow it is off to Cape Town!

Knysna környéke az emelkedő hegyekben egész Dél-Afrika egyetlen olyan része, ahol a vegetáció már-már idézi a trópusi erdők világát. Vasfák, sárgafák, ostorfák, lelógó zúzmókkal, liánokkal, páfrányokkal stb. Egy (Dél-Afrikában egyébként igen gyakori) lebetonozatlan, de számmal jelzett úton bekocsiztunk az erdőbe, egyre magasabbra felkapaszkodva az Outeniqua-hegységbe. Megálltunk a 600+ éves Edward király fánál, ami 39 méter magas. Majd Prince ...
Impozáns. Ez a szó jutott egyből eszembe a hermanus-i hotelünk reggelizőterméről. A 2. emeleten, ennek megfelelően kilátással az óceánra. Reggeli előtt még tettünk egy parti óceánbúcsúztató sétát (most már bálnaspotting nélkül), hiszen a jó öreg Atlantit a nap folyamán lecseréltük az Indiaira. És ehhez csak kb. 300 kilométert kellett kelet felé vezetnem. Nem a part mentén, mert ott nem fut végig út (ezért Cape Agulhas-t ki is hagytuk), hanem a hegyek ...
Wilderness, Western Cape, South Africa perec
... then we used the microwave to heat up some leftover pasta for lunch.. all very peculiar!!! We decided to take ourselves off to the local shop for some supplies and thats when we met 'Rocky' the owner coming down the lane the other way.. We explained we were coming back and hadnt just used the facilities and buggered off! We then returned to meet the guys and girls working there and check out our room which we had all to ourselves. We stayed at Rocky ...

... I remember we went swimming in the lake. I was the same age as Kirsten, and Megan was younger. I didn't have a swimsuit at the time, so I had to borrow one from them!! I was so embarresed that Megan was younger than me by quite a few years, yet I fit into one of her bathing suits.
