Drakensberg & KZN South Coast


After a really relaxing stay at Don & Joy in Randburg, we set off, recharged and with Colt & Xcape happier at having enjoyed some TLC.
Headed for the Drakensberg, where we camped at Injisuthi, a relatively rustic camp between Monk’s Cowl & Giant’s Castle.



Went for a ‘walk’ to the viewpoint, which was more strenuous than expected, but were rewarded with great scenery at the top.



After 2 days, hit the road, and made our way to the coast –







First night at Rocky Bay was windy, ... then next few days at Kelso (Happy Wanderers camp) were cloudy & rainy.


Since then have travelled south to Trafalgar – Port o’ Call camp, which must be one of the best in the country. Thus far only 1 surf on KZN coast in nearly a week. Mainly windy & rainy, so no pix. Another front of 3 days rain expected tomorrow, so gonna hibernate into our ‘van at T.O. Strand til it stops, then to the ‘Kei. However, front brings SW winds = offshore :-)
so maybe score some waves…



Can’t moan about the weather now, after having nearly 5 months of stunning African sunshine.

Tot siens!
