South Africa : D-Day


The D-Day is finally there. Getting so excited to finally travel to Africa. The start was a bit exhausting with 12 hours of plane travel. But we finally put a foot on the African soil, yeah. First thing to do is to get through the customs and get all bagages. Next, get the car, humm... that might be a bit more difficult. We got a small Ford Figo, didn't even know they had that model. Anyway, found the car and now big day, driving on the left side of the road. It's really hard to get use to it but it will do. I'll probably go a few times on the wrong side of the car for a few days but it will be alright.
On the drive to our first place we've crossed a lot of flat and dry landscapes like you would imagine. However, getting close to Sabie we start to see hills and more contrasted views. Our first choice of the day was to visit the Horseshoe Falls. Even though the falls were nice, we had to drive 2 kilometer on a dirt road with the brand new renting car, at least it's still in one piece :-). Afterwards we went to the Mac Mac pools and falls to finish the already well filled day in the Valley View Backpacker.
This place is really amazing and friendly. Everybody can find what he's looking for.
