TWO DRIFTERS AND ONE TEDDY SAY GOODBYE TO TWO DRIFTERS AND HEAD TO THE BLUFF

Feels like being home again! Back at Ansteys on the Bluff near Durban where we had a wonderful month last year Sun out and enormous surf. Saturday afternoon quite a buzz with lots of young people enjoying themselves .

Said sad farewell to Sue and Josef having dropped them off at King Shaka Airport Durban. Certainly covered a lot of Sourh Africa about 2300 miles now and it's been amazing.

Barry and I are now in Seaview cottage looking out over the surf - lovely. I think Tash and Heidi were surprised when I rang the bell on their doorstep!! We had made a booking thro their office so tried to keep it as a surprise
It was wonderful to meet them in person after a year of emails and Tash is the lovely warm person I imagined .

Had super breakfast at Heidi's new cafe , enjoyed the beach again and met interesting people. Alex from Zurich is travelling Africa in a great 4 x 4 with a frame over the top which is a tent Down the sides are colourful handprints of African orphans he has helped He is heading north to Malawi and then Kenya
We wish him well

Heidi cooked us a delicious dinner and talking with Rudi and Tash just felt we had known each other for years. We had spent some time in the afternoon watching Rudi surfing- he goes out three times a day!! Such lovely people, surrounded by interesting drifters and always helping someone or the other. Today it was looking after a dog for a while!!

So we had a great night which went too quickly. I could happily stay a month!!
