Had Mad dash to Port Elizabeth today, the paperwork for the flight said 12:30 departure but 13:30 local. I had no idea what all that meant so I covered the 150 miles to the airport in just over 2 hours only to find the check-in just opening. For some reason I have been bumped to Business class so this is coming from the airport lounge.
The last two days have been spent exploring, Wilderness, Knysna and Plettenberg Bay, I reckon there is at least two weeks of fun to be had here.
Ray and Fiona's guest farm Bella Manga was a home from home, I was treated like an old friend and quickly made friends withe their dogs, I will make the place my base for a week next Trip,
I am flying up to Durban today for two days of curry before heading into the Drakensberg Mountains, then up to Rorke's Drift before I fly home via Johannesburg. Half way through, I am not ready to return to the cold.
I saw fire lillies first in Kirstenbosch Gardens in Cape Town and thought how much Jan would have loved them, then I saw these beautiful examples at Birds of Eden near Plettenburg Bay and just around the corner I came upon this sign.
I warned you that the place was addictive ..... think I could wallow there for 2mnths not just the 2 wks.
ReplyDeleteSounds like Ray & Fiona will be getting a lodger .....
Watch out for the Zulus you know what they do to Welshmen !
