9-10th July, Jeffrey's Bay, Surfs Up! Hungover. But the beach was 60 seconds walk away and we were a little tired of the constant moving so we decided to relax. James, Scott and I walked through the town in the morning in search of a towel, not to hard you would think in a surf town - wrong! The only towels we saw for an hour were 30 pounds from surf shops until we stumbled across the wonderful towel world. James and I raided the bargain bin, Scott picked up...

8th July, Jeffreys Bay, Atomic Bombs come in packages like Maurice!! We woke up coughing and spluttering due to Canadian Chris passing on his Kennel Cough whilst sitting in the car and sharing hotel rooms.

Eggs and toast behind us we decided to visit Oudtshoo...

James had the tendency through the road trip to wake up before the rest of us have a look around and bring back ...

Firstly a car, secondly a map, and furthermore a SatNav comes in handy! We woke up Monday ready to leave with none of the above in place! We'd been to Avis a car rental company who told us we couldn't rent a car if we were not 23, so we ditched them and found another place called aroundabo...
