Monday 05 February

About 26C, but only very brief glimpses of  the sun. As the day progressed, dark clouds became more of a permanent feature. Summer in these parts is clearly just as fickle as it is in England.

We drove out to the west of Durban to an area known as Valley of 1000 Hills where we had a late lunch at a lovely terraced restaurant. Had we known there were so many steep gradients to be climbed we might have rented a car powered by more than an elastic band - acknowledgements to Kia.
