Hello!

Today we posted the third of our little reports on our trip, which will takes us from South Africa back to Germany over 'only' 10 months, up the eastern route.

You can find us at http://www.wanderwheels.wordpress.com/

The first may not interest you soo much as it's more about friends: but we do add an odd sentence about First Impressions of South Africa.

We continue into Lesotho, which was far too short, but hugely recommendable, you can easily spend 10 days to 2 weeks here.

And the return to South Africa for part two.

As we condense a lot of impressions into a little post, there's a bias towards informing our friends, family and colleagues back home, of what we've been up to, what we notice most etc.

But if you, here on our favourite forum (and i only ride a motorbike really badly, but still I like you and the site :-))
would like any specific insights I would be happy to consider them going forward.

For South Africa our road highlights were certainly:

* the cobra tour around the ocean road after Gordon's bay, by Cape Town, to Betty's Bay, Kleinmond and over the Franschoek Pass (not very 4x4-ish, I realise!)

* Seweweekspoort, Swartberg pass, Montagu Pass, the Oxwagon Trail from Bonniedale Farm, Attakwas Pass, Prince Alfred pass (?) etc around Calitzdorp, Prince Albert etc

* Baviaanskloof

* Wuppertal to Maatjiesrivier in the Cederberg area

* Richtersveld trails to De hoop to helskloof.

Once again, if any of you would like any specific information/interest focus I would be happy to consider them, if I can!

And if anyone planning a similar trip has any questions, we may be able to help with, just let us know!

A great weekend to all and happy viewing!
