I drove the entire way out to Drakensberg today, and it was the brownest, driest road I've ever seen. We arrived at the Royal Natal National Park, and a man at the visitors' centre recommended that we hike the Cascades (it was already quite late in the day).
The rest of the afternoon was spent marveling at the beauty of South Africa. "Eish!" I would say happily, whenever I would turn the corner and see the smoke from campsites filtering through the pines, or the water that cascaded over stones, or the vast horizon of hills, or the majesty of the mountains as they changed from brown to gold in the light of the setting sun.
Everything made me stop and smile. It felt good to be surrounded by beauty today.
I imagine you have more pictures than these. I can't wait to see them.
