Sunrise was again spectacular, ‘sky blue pink’ is a real colour.
I love the Transkei Wild Coast, with its endless beaches and dunes covered in natural forests. A few years ago we hiked along the wild coast beaches with the kids and family friends from Kob Inn to Morgans Bay. We walked between 6 & 22km a day, stopping off at Mazeppa Bay, Wavecrest and Trennery’s for dinner, bed and breakfast. It was a great holiday and one I highly recommend.
Transkei is also a place of cows, we were again visited on the beach this morning, by a much larger herd than yesterday. They appear from nowhere on the beach around 10, spend the day sleeping on the sand and then disappear back into the forest around 4 o’clock. Apparently on the beach they don't get bothered by flies.
We also picked up 2 mad mutts on the beach. They joined me for a long walk, then jumped all over Gray on our return and then promptly passed out on our towels. We had another long swim, for winter the weather is amazingly sunny and warm.
We were also blessed to see 4 Southern Right Whales in the distance, along with a variety of sea birds.
This afternoon Kevin took us on a sundowner cruise. We were joined by a honeymoon couple from Durban and a couple from the Netherlands. The company was great, the sunset was spectacular but the highlight was watching a fish eagle swoop down to catch a fish in front of us, a really special sight.
