  • South Africa – March 2020

And finally . . .

Posted on March 16, 2020July 3, 2020by Sarah Isaacs

. . . We said goodbye to Pumba, and flew to Durban. This was supposed to be a two day relax in the heat, dipping our toes into the Indian Ocean. Unfortunately the weather has other ideas – thunderstorms and torrential downpours – laugh at us here However every cloud has a silver lining and […]

Pumba!

Posted on March 14, 2020March 16, 2020by Sarah Isaacs

Thankfully we read Trailfinders instructions our last night in Wilderness and arrived between 12:00-13:00. It was a 4 hour drive but the very early start was worth it. We have arrived on Safari in the most idyllic setting. See a video of our lodge here, and the restaurant and “lounge” area here. Photos and words […]

. . . . Our sunshine is back!

Posted on March 11, 2020March 14, 2020by Sarah Isaacs

A great couple of relaxing days, Tuesday in Mossel Bay and Wednesday in Plettenberg Bay, both days bathed in sunshine. The coastal scenery in both bays was spectacular. I recognise that photographs won’t do it justice so you will be relieved to hear that there aren’t that many at all. Tuesday we went west to […]

Where has all my sunshine gone . . .

Posted on March 10, 2020March 12, 2020by Sarah Isaacs

I can just hear all the sympathy with that title! So we left Franschhoek Sunday morning as we had approximately a 260 mile drive to our next stay in Wilderness. Going round the mountains and over the Franschhoek pass gave us a glorious view of the town and the valley. Our drive to the coastal […]

L’Chaim, L’Chaim to life . . .

Posted on March 7, 2020March 8, 2020by Sarah Isaacs

So we left Cape Town early on Friday morning. Not quite as early as expected due to the delay at Avis – allegedly I packed too much so the cases didn’t fit in the boot of the first car they gave us. As in none of the cases did! After a car change, it was […]

Rachel, I can hear you from here – “oh oh oh, they’re so cute” – and that’s only the header image. You’ll have to read all this before you get to the bottom to see the rest🤣 Today was long, but brilliant. Stunning scenery along the way, over Chapman’s Peak Drive, through Llandudno and Scarborough […]

A thought provoking day . . .

Posted on March 4, 2020March 10, 2020by Sarah Isaacs

So the day got off to a good start – I had to rescue 👨🏻twice, as he got on the wrong minibus, twice. Not a good sign on day 4 of the holiday, especially as I thought that I’d not been misbehaving too much. I hadn’t intended to write a post tonight, but the thoughts […]

Just mooching around in The Mother City, The Big Table and the man jumps . . .

After a few hours in the lounge at Heathrow, and too much free alcohol, we slept, and presumably snored, our way to Cape Town. Great flight! Pleased to see the “health checks” before passport control – better than nothing, and neither of us were too warm so we were allowed into the country. However, we […]

Been west, been east, now going south . . .

Time to travel again, this time just me and him. Back to the country of his birth – although he can’t remember it. Given storm Ciara is battering us at the moment, we can’t wait! As you can see the most important aspect of the trip is the camera equipment, which is sorted. As 👨🏻will […]

All good things have to end . . .

Posted on March 24, 2018December 5, 2019by Sarah Isaacs

So after a lovely last day where we did the Singapore river walk from our hotel, through the immaculate litter-free streets, past the colourful old shuttered buildings interspersed with the modern glass monoliths, coffee bars and restaurants we now wait at Singapore airport to board our flight home. Having said good bye to the sun […]
