Day 1: Tuesday 16th October. Destination
Thesen Islands, Knysna |
|
We started our early morning pick-ups in
Camps Bay, Tokai and Tableview before
heading out on the N2 over Sir Lowry's Pass
to Peregrine Farm Stall in the Elgin Valley,
for our first comfort break. |
|
 |
 |
|
There was an air of excitement with everyone
in a jovial mood, anticipating what was to
come. |
 |
 |
|
Swellendam is half way to Knysna and we chose
Rolandale Farm Stall
for our stop for a light
lunch. |
|
|
|
Sandra, a nurse, accompanied Linda, who recently
was hospitalised with pneumonia. During the
second half of our trip we encountered a head
wind which slowed our progress and we eventually
arrived on Thesen Islands at 6pm *8 hour trip!). Yes, we're
happy to finally be in Knysna! |
|
|
|
The two homes we chose in
Canvas Lane,
Hammock Island, were in close
proximity. We are shown our allocated
rooms and were soon unpacking our
belongings and exploring the new
surroundings. |
|
 |
|
|
The stillness of the water amplifies the
reflections and we pause to breathe in the
beauty in front of us. |
|
|
|
Our first dinner in Knysna was at
Caffe Mario at
the Waterfront. The light rain did not dampen
the high spirits. As usual, Mario's provided
excellent meals. |
