FOUR DRIFTERS AND ONE TEDDY HEAR THE RHYTHMS OF THE SEA AGAIN

Imagine this.
Log cabins on stilts in a lush tropical forest, boardwalk over wide areas of mangroves and then a short walk over sand dunes to the sea. Miles and miles of white sands and crashing surf as far as the eye can see, no buildings, no trees just dunes and sea. We're now in Mutnzini an hour and a half from Durban and have two nights here - gorgeous.
Great last stop for two of the Drifters.

Sue has been practising her Zulu and is impressing the locals so we get beaming smiles - they love the fact that white people are taking the trouble to learn their language

We've DRIFTED 1600i miles and only half way- seen amazing scenery- fantastic waterfalls, canyons, swollen rivers rolling hills and majestic mountains. We have stayed in twelve very different types of accommodation from tents. Rondavels, Log cabins. a farm, thatched lodges and condos so all great experiences. We have met lovely people we won't forget and seen amazing animals living in their extensive natural environments, beautiful birds and butterflies

AWESOME AFRICA


Tropical storms created torrents of water pouring down the rivers and tumbling into the sea. Great walks thro mangroves where the rain had raised the waters by
2 metres quite incredible
Had a swim in pool with lots of vervet monkeys prancing around in the trees

Sue and Josefs last night so we are at iThe Fat Cat which has become a favourite for our last meal together
