            Arriving at Johannesburg Airport after a long nine hour
flight we were happy to stretch our legs for a while.
Quickly we went through all the usual formalities, picked up our luggage
and looked for our connecting flight.
The final destination was the coastal area.
We landed at George Airport in the middle of the "Garden Route", from
there a couple of hours by car to "Plettenberg Bay".
This is the most beautiful area, the beaches, the sea just the right
prescription to relax.
After about a week of the good life and touring the immediate area, we
went by way of the "Garden Route" to Cape Town.
Arriving there late at night, tired from the day's driving, we only went to
see the town the next day.
Went up "Table Mountain" by cable car, it brings you to the top, almost a
thousand meters above sea level.
A fantastic view you have from the top.
Most amazing were the animals on top, in the Nature Reserve.  
"Dassies", they are called, have enormous large and sharp teeth.
As we stayed only for twelve days in the country, time just went too fast.
So before we knew it, the day of departure arrived, we flew from Cape
Town to Jo’burg (as the locals call it) from there our airplane was waiting
to carry us homebound again.
