We leave Aurélie at the border to Mozambique and start backtracking a bit towards Graskop, a nice little town at the beginning of the Blyde River Canyon. We spend a couple of days there hiking a bit and seeing more of the area by car. And oh yes, doing laundry when we arrive that first afternoon. I have to say, never ever in my whole life have I done so much washing by hand! What a difference with the other trips, where having laundry done for a cheap price was the only thing I did. And doing laundry has revealed a bit of a bizarre side of me: I actually enjoy watching laundry dry. Isn’t that the weirdest personality thing you’ve ever heard?! LOL
Anyway, when we go hiking it becomes clear that we can’t do anything anymore without GPS. Yes, I don’t know how we actually managed to do that but we got lost following (well trying to) a hiking trail! After 4 hours of walking we gave up, hiked to the main road and hitchhiked back. No more walking in the woods without a little help from Armin The Garmin for us. LOL
Just follow the white footprints. Yeah, okayyy… LOL
The following day we are back in our element: we do a daytrip with the car and with GPS. : ) We don’t get lost and after 6 hours we are sound and safe back in our hostel. A good hostel, you know, the one I actually managed to upload the blog at! : )
First stop: The pinnacle
At God’s window
At The Three Potholes (not to be seen on this picture but we are big fans of water that falls LOL
At The Three Rondavels
And at our last stop: in the little town called Pilgrim's rest
