Reilly on the Road

Oct 16, 2006 - Knysna, Bloukrans Bridge, Victoria Bay

Day 10 - October 16, 2006 As predicted, we started with a little shopping in some great shops on the Knysna waterfront - a little something for everyone it seemed. We carried on after lunch through Wilderness National Park towards the town of George, then tucking down a short but steep coastal road down again to Victoria Bay - a very cosy little natural harbour (ok, rocks and beach). ... Lining one side of the small bay was a narrow cobbled track with a single row of rental cottages, with our final destination for the day - Land's End - at the very end of the road (naturally) - the closest B&B to the sea in all of South Africa.Day 10 - October 16, 2006 As predicted, we started with a little shopping in some great shops on the Knysna waterfront - a little something for everyone it seemed.

Got to use the Internet and had a great spaghetti dinner at the hostel.Had trouble getting my act together for departure, then the restaurant was reaaly slow with my eggs.
