31/1/2011 A decent sleep for once before we headed to a mall to get some jobs done. I ended up having a severe haircut, the first one I have had done by someone other than my barber Uncle in my whole life. The black local who did it was useless. I was in there for almost two hours and when I cam out I just had my hair really short, two on the sides and three on top. I asked him to use scissors for the top but he even asked if he could use a shaver as he obviou...

30/1/2011 The bloody staff and cleaners must have woken us up several times from 9-12 to check if we were staying another night and changing and washing sheets. Why they couldn't have done it later I don't know! Me and Mike were not happy bunnies! Hanging again, we splashed out on a taxi as it was a Sunday to visit the KwaZuluNatal Sharks Board. For £3 we got to see a big-screen programme on sharks and the organisation itself before witnessing a 1.84-metre Ti...

29/1/2011 Today was hangover day at the beach and it was great weather. We had chicken burger, chips and a coke overlooking the ocean from Joe Cool's.

28/1/2011 The girls were sound and gave us a free lift to Mtubatuba so we could jump on a minibus to Durban. Fuelled up with some muesli with yoghurt on that Michael had kindly donated - was good stuff. Mtubatuba was Mike's favourite place because the atmosphere was pumping with all the blacks dancing and blaring out music. The place was manic! We managed to get a £10 ride which was a third of what it cost poor old Jack to get the Baz bus. And we were there in ...

27/1/2011 The girls took us on a day trip to Wetlands Park (Greater St Lucia) and up to Cape Vidal. It cost a few quid each and we saw lots of wildlife comprising of; kudu, reedbuck, bushbuck, wildebeest, zebra, warthog, rhino, storks, kites, monkeys and a big group of hippos which was awesome. And amongst that we also spent a few hours on a big sandy beach by the woodland where there were a fair few tourists. We went checking out the crabs and fish in the rockp...
