lol Hey R.P. now that I am live again it will slow down. I lost two days of internet at Badfontein and Stutterheim.

So pleased you are enjoying this T.T. with us. Thought you might like the historical information.

Moving on to Addo tomorrow morning for three nights.

Hmmz, I think I strolled too far off at Lake Clarens and got left behind there. lol

But I'm glad I caught up with you again at the seaside. Love the beach, the water, the birds and the views.
That B&B you found yourself at Kenton on Sea is a real gem with such a view! :-0


God put me on earth to accomplish a certain amount of things. Right now I'm so far behind that I'll never die.

25 APRIL 2015 - DAY 10 - KENTON ON SEA - PART 1/2

An absolute cracker of a day - nice and warm and no wind. Spent from 10:00 until 14:00 on the beach. At 16:30 went for a three hour evening boat cruise and dinner up the Kariega River.

Early morning fishermen.

Image

We found a lovely spot with both sun and shade. There was no shade on the beach and me and my sensitive skin cannot handle that.

Image

The view from our beach spot. What an amazing place to spend four hours - almost as good as Lake Panic.

Image

View of Middle Beach.

Image

Blue Pool.

25 APRIL 2015 - DAY 10 - KENTON ON SEA - PART 2/2

Start of the evening cruise.

Some of the wildlife seen on the trip.

Dinner whilst anchored in the middle of the river before the return trip in the dark.

Image

On the trip they used spotlights for looking on the river banks, rather like a night game drive, but on water.

Unfortunately we did not see much.

END OF DAY 10.

Tomorrow we move on to Addo for three nights so make sure you stay on board.
