Knysna

Arrived in George Wednesday. The plane was delayed and landed about an hour later than scheduled. Collected the car for the short drive to Knysna. The drive turned out to be a lot slower than expected. Long stretches of road with 60 kph speed limit.

All the way they view is quite stunning. Eventually we arrived and were very thankful for the advance party - the sons- that had organized supplies and especially food.

The house itself is stunning with great views of the lagoon. The weather so far has been warm and pleasant. Not as hot as I would have hoped, but still very pleasant.

Of course the thing that makes a massive difference is just being away from it all. Far away from the urban sprawl, the heavy traffic and the rest.

So far have been to the Knysna Waterfront and the mall. Drove down to Buffel Bay - a very quiet and secluded beach with long expanses of beautiful sand. One of the first things I noticed was a Jellyfish lying on the beach. Forewarned is forearmed so we managed to avoid those.

So far have been feeling okay, so hopefully will continue that way. Photos to follow.
