SA 2008 JOURNEY

Page 24 - February 7/8

ADDO to MORGAN BAY

Road construction
on Route N2

The sky was overcast
and we experienced
several soggy drizzles

After some 70 km,at 10:35 we
reached Grahamstown a pleasant
(Rhodes) University town

The outskirts of
historic Grahamstown
(1820 settlers)

Here we are in
King Williams Town

where we ate "vetkoek" in
"Something Fishy" (above)
I also found a Thai restaurant...

...and asked for the "Thanakan
Hollanda" or NEDBANK!

We are now anxiously
looking for Route R349
to take us to the coast ...

Back at the Indian Ocean
which looked a bit wild
After a harrowing potholed
descent we found the "boulevard"
and the Mitford Lodge
To the South, a promontory
on which the waves broke
(see photograph below)
Although they sent us to Morgan Bay
Hotel for dinner, Book served a fine
breakfast the next morning Book

Mercia enjoys
the sea breeze

The full name of the waitress
was Bukelwa Zayepi

View from Ashley's porch

the UK mgr was "Jade" and
the owner Mrs Vermaak.
