Travelogue
Russell and I kayaked in the lagoon for a couple of hours as it was the first hot day for a week. Hard work against the incoming tide but easy on the way home
We also saw the endangered Knysna sea horses in a tank
We are off in the morning to fly to johannesberg and to the next section of Mike’s great adventure.
Russell is busy BBQing ostrich as it’s a first for Mike – it’s not a whole ostrich although we could as the BBQ is huge. I am having a bit of R and R with a nice glass of cabernet
Distant African fish eagle (about half a mile away)
Knysna heads
On the way to monkey world in Plettenberg stopped at the Saturday market so Mike could shop. Tried to persuade monkey world to take on a couple of big british monkeys. They were not keen.
5am 40mph winds and driving rain. At least their severe drought is on the way out!
A wet view from the balcony
And then the day turned out like this….
This is where the Atlantic meets the lagoon at Knysna heads.
Long 9 hour day with stops. Snow on the tops of the mountains near Worcester then hot sun in the high desert.
No trip to cape town is complete without a trip to the wineries.
Visited Tokara for a tasting
Botanical gardens in the rain then off to a windy cape of good hope
Off to table mountain in perfect sun then afternoon at Boulders beach with the penguins
