We are staying in a small cottage in the Drakensberg. Mike and Barbara picked us up in Durban and we drove straight to Lake Navarone, in the Southern ‘Berg’. There isn’t a breath of wind. As the sun sets hundreds of frogs start chirping in the lake next to the cottage.
The cool mountain air is crystal clear; the Milky Way stretches from horizon to horizon.
Inside, the coal range proves to be a little temperamental and starts losing heat half way through the roast. Luckily, Barbara is well prepared. A pre-cooked chicken tonight, the roast can wait ‘til tomorrow.
Wow - that is so beautiful. It's not as I imagine SA to be at all - where are the wild animals eating people? Where is all the dust? Looks way too peaceful - are you sure that you're not back here?
