After reluctantly departing the Buffalo Camp we were greeted by our new guide Marshall. Off we went for the 300km trip to last night's stop at Hazyview (think Smokey Mountains but tropical fruits grown on a commercial scale and eucalyptus tree farms). En route we stopped at several scenic vistas mostly along the Blyde River. We had a couple of short walks which was nice as we have not been doing too much of that for the last several days. We all fought sleep on the bus, most of us unsuccessfully. The canyons and valleys were great.
After arriving at our hotel around 5:30, we all enjoyed a happy hour around the pool and then off for dinner at the nearby restaurants. It was lights out in our room not long past 9:00. A good travel day where we were able to catch up a bit on sleep and maybe shift gears mentally a bit before the next part of the adventure, Joburg and a tour of Soweto.
