Friday Flashback – Kruger Park Safari

May 14, 2010 By Dave

After spending some time in the mountains, I finally made it to Johannesburg, where I promptly booked a tour to Kruger Park for early the next morning. Once we got in the swing of going on game drives every day, I was having so much fun I extended my trip by an extra day for […]

Friday Flashback – Drakensberg Mountains & Kingdom of Lesotho

May 7, 2010 By Dave

Leaving the Wild Coast, I spent a few nights in Durban to catch up on my blogging before heading onward to a lodge in the southern Drakensberg Mountains. From there I did a day hike to see some old San rock art, and a morning hike in Lesotho, which was dampened by clouds and rain […]

Friday Flashback – South Africa’s Wild Coast

April 30, 2010 By Dave

While Buccaneers was good for a party, my […]

Friday Flashback – Addo National Elephant Park

After soaking up the surf in Jeffrey’s Bay, I joined two European girls for a guided overnight trip to Addo National Elephant Park.  We spent a full day in the park, where we saw tons of elephants, buffalo, warthogs, turtles, and assorted game, but no lions. Day 1 – Road Trippin’ Day 2 -Morning Game […]

Friday Flashback: The Eastern Cape

April 16, 2010 By Dave

As I headed further east along South Africa’s coastline, I couldn’t stop myself from spending at least a night or two in several popular resort towns, including Kysna, Plettenberg Bay, and Jeffrey’s Bay.  Like my experience in Australia, South Africa was starting to seem like one long beach town. Enjoying the Island Vibe in Knysna […]
