We were up early, eager to complete the last leg of this section to Umngazi River Bungalows. We left at 7:30 am for the 300 km trip. We took the N2 to Mthatha, passing through the busy towns of Butterworth and Mbhashe.
We encountered lots of road works which slowed the trip down considerably. It will be an awesome road, when it is finished. We have been so impressed by all the road works taking place around the country and the condition of the roads in general.
We came across another wind farm. I have a fascination for these massive white wind turbines. I am so pleased to see that we are investing in eco energy. Despite Zuma and the political situation, there are a lot of good things taking place in our amazing country and I am really positive about the future.
We arrived at Umngazi River Bungalows at 12 and Julie, Adie and a very excited Luke arrived a few minutes later. After the delicious lunch buffet, we checked into our rooms. We have a bungalow with a glorious sea view.
Then it was off to the beach, no way were we keeping a 6 year old away. We caught the ferry across the lagoon and braved the cold sea water.
We had lots of laughs over pre dinner drinks and the 4 course dinner. Six glorious days in paradise, what a win.
