I went back to the campground after my last email
to discover my tent was upside down and rolling back and forth in
the mud. I thought I had been robbed, but the ground had become
saturated, the tent stakes fell out and the wind rolled my tent.
Just when i thought I had seen the worse.
I have just reached the Garden Route, though it pales
compared ot the Great Ocean Road or the Pacific Highway (so far)
at least I have a tailwind and sunshine. South Africa is rough,
but the people are fantastic. They really help me through the bad
spots. I have had so many invitations to peoples homes and dinner
and coffee and beer that afrikaaners must be the friendliest people
in the world, and they are very proud of their country and pleased
to have visitors.
Only about 600 kilometers to go.
