Following yet another delicious breakfast in the blazing heat of Stellenbosch we packed up and left for Hermanus. This is on the south coast and renowned for its whale-watching. Unfortunately, not at this time of year - they are a winter visitor - South Africa's winter, not ours.
Our overnight stay here is to break the journey at a beautiful spot and make it less of a drive to Knysna, further east.
Well we've hit the jackpot again - stunning guesthouse right on the coast which would easily allow you to sit in bed and watch frolicking Right Whales in the sea mere yards away.
