We were really spoilt for choice along the South Coast of Natal, quite a few offering ‘dog friendly’, however none quite as ‘friendly’ to humans and dogs alike as Lalanathi which is Zulu for ‘come sleep with us’. This gorgeously, green caravan park, tucked away at the end of a cul-de-sac, in the suburb of […]
So, we decided to leave Lalanathi a couple of days early, for not other reason than to plan to spend a few extra days in Dundee so that John could get more time in for fly fishing and piccies, as well as a couple more bicycle rides. Cycling on the South Coast was a ‘no-n0’. […]
I left you, hopefully with a very wetteed appetite for more BLOG hehehehe. Well since my last update, we have said good-bye to Mandy, Zillah and Kady. They have gone on ahead of us to Mtunzini, we will be joining them on the 12 June 2013. But until then, I have much to share with […]
Hello again….last time I blogged, we were waiting for the ‘total onslaught’ at Dragons Rest for the Sani to Sea…..’total onslaught’ actually never happened. Although the self catering and b&b accommodation at Dragons Rest were fully booked, it sure was a very poor show on the camping front. We had a couple of chaps in […]
Dragons Rest is a 30 hectare farm, owned and run by Kelvin Strachan. Kelvin offers camping and self catering. The camping is divided into camps 1 – 5, each probably managing to accommodate up to 6 tents, campervans or caravans. All have braai facilities, are grassed, have water points and are electrified. Ablution facilities offer […]
Accommodation for our campervan wasn’t an easy exercise as the few camping/caravan sites in Coffee Bay were not accessible for caravans or campers, that is, until we found Coffee Bay Camping. Run by Corrie and Bucks from Port Edward and when they are not there, ably managed by Mike and his doggie Amour, we were […]
So its Monday again, I just cannot believe how fast the time is flying by… shew… we are only here for another couple of weeks, before we leave for our next destination… Port Shepstone on the South Coast of KwaZulu Natal. Anyway back to NOW… I was really beginning to feel like I needed a […]
So Mandy and Zillah with Kady arrived on the 2 April 2013. After some scouting around and discussion, they decided to pitch caravan on the same site as John and I, for security purposes…our campsite was big enough for all of us. That evening, John and I treated the Croney family to a seafood feast. Crays, oysters […]
Since I blogged last, the dogs and I went into East London with John to do one of his driving lessons in the truck. Wow, what an eye opener it was too. This huge big truck which he had to alley dock and alley dock and alley dock, till he got it right. It was […]
We left Cintsa with horns blaring and hands waving….scheduled arrival time in Coffee Bay…..2pm. We had been warned about the terrible condition of the roads to Coffee Bay, after turning off the N2, however we still needed to travel the N2 and were not sure what to expect. Shew, what an experience. There were lots […]
It was another lazy Saturday afternoon in Cintsa. Tina was indulging in a siesta so I decided to take the dogs for a leisurely beach walk. One of the most appealing things about Cintsa is the pristine sandy beach that follows the curve of the bay for miles. Tina and I had noticed an astonishing […]
