We road tripped. we left Cape Town and headed up the Garden Route. we overnighted a few nights at my friend's magical farm between the forests of Knysna and Plett. they have fireflies that visit and fly in a spiral dance every night. we saw a full moon rise. we harvested 100 vine leaves to make 100 dolmades. we harvested fresh herbs from the garden, and visited Sedgefield Market where my friends sell their handmade silver jewelry and leather goods. we swam in the rock pools of Kara Tara. my friends are living the good life.
We made our way to Hogsback, to the magical misty mountains of Terra Khaya and Away with the Fairies. we drank whiskey, we walked the Labyrinth. we partied on the edge of the world. we left the mist for the sunshine coast, to the shores of Cintsa and Buccaneers. this is a place of legends, the most beautiful shore line, people and food. The Barefoot Cafe gets a special mention. it was a holiday to remember, my thanks.
