Lions and onto Plettenberg

Last safari drive this morning and it was really worth it. For the last 2 days we had glimpses of lions, today we found and watched the whole pride of 7 lions for a long time, brilliant.
The whole 3 days at Amakhala Safari Lodge was brilliant, great all inclusive, more than we could expect, extremely helpful friendly staff and a park that limits traffic (no public) and even limits numbers of Jeeps per zone.
3 hour drive along fairly empty roads to Cottage Pie Plettenberg. Another lovely place. Beach is similar to Weymouth and you have the Robberg headland which is just like Portland. Whales are seen here, but not for us today! Will try at lookouts tomorrow.
We had sherry on the room at Amskhala and have it here as well. Found out talking to locals on beach that its traditional in the winter.
Have a full wallet of notes that amount to £20!
Experienced our first electrical "load shedding" where hotel had its power cut.Lue lisää
