Natures Valley, nature reserve

[Andy Rabagliati <andyr@wizzy.com>]

Folks,

I picked up my motorcycle again in Durban - R2200 worth of
repairs - including a clutch pressure plate at R900 (eek)
and a complete set of gearbox bearings, and R1000 worth of
labor. (R6 to the dollar).

I pressed on to East London, then the next day through to
Natures Valley, just outside Plettenburg bay, crossing in
my travels several huge rivers that run down to the sea.
I spent a couple of days in Natures Valley - a Feinboss
plant kingdom, and the worlds highest Bungee jump (No, I
didn't..). I went sailing in Plettenburg Bay, and visited
a seal colony, and some dolphins that stopped by the boat
to play. The Backpackers lodge there had a very interesting
guy working there - a (gay) South African that had been
round the world massaging the rich and famous, and then
had lost it all trying to pass Coke through customs in
Bolivia - (bad experience deleted) - and was back in
South Africa after rehab.

I only made it as far as Knysna today - the steady drizzle
was getting to me - by waterproofs were mislaid in Durban
at the bike shop. I am interested to check out the beer in
home town of Mitchells Brewery - under new management, I hear.

Cheers,      Andy!
