Transkei









We had planned on leaving Morgans Bay on Saturday morning, but we woke to find out that our campsite was now the venue for the local Farmers Market!  There was no easy way to drive Max out, without causing a bit of a traffic hazard, so…. oh well….. we were forced to stay another night!  Which was great of course because the kids got to eat candy floss & we got to enjoy the festivities that a small seaside village has to offer.  The whole town showed up and Yellowwood Forest Camp seemed like the place to be!

We left Sunday morning after a bit of a play on the beach, and then headed north.  We turned off the N2 towards Coffee Bay and then nearer the coast we turned towards Umdumbi.  We found a backpackers quite close to the beach and although they said their campsite was full, they weren’t going to turn us away because it was starting to get dark.
Alex had a great surf this morning, without a wetsuit, nice!  And the kids and I enjoyed some warm water swimming.  The kids even learnt how to bodysurf – they are complete naturals!


I have to explain what the above photo is.  Alex makes the greatest Omelets, and after Xan asked for Honey on his, Alex got an idea.  He made himself an Apple Pie Omelette!  Tinned apple, muesli, raisins, Honey, and Custard….. all on top of an open Omelette! 


We’ll leave this place tomorrow and head north again.
