Gap Year Experiences
Updates and info from on the ground during our 11 week and 5 week Experiences in South Africa
Thursday 18 March 2010
We have just arrived in Jo'burg after two days in the Champagne Valley, Central Drakensberg. Although it was the shortest stay during our road trip, we really manged to make the most of it with a 6 hour hike through the national park. The route took us up to 2300m altitude which as you can imagine provided breathtaking views. The rest of our time was spent around monopoly, trivial pursuit and chess boards, dips in the incredibly located swimming pool and we even managed to sneak in some much needed haircuts for the boys.
Unfortunately this is a very brief stay in Jo'burg as we leave for our first week in the game reserves in the morning. This also means that we will be out of touch with the rest of the world until next Friday as there will be no internet or cellphone reception at Loskop reserve.
So do check in at the end of next week for an update on our time at Loskop. I personally am ridiculously excited for this part of the Pepper Experience and hopefully we will have some great tales to tell.
Till then,
Pip.
