Couchsurfers make it to Tanzania


Our Couchsurfing buddies Jebb and Daniele (left) and (centre) have made it to Tanzania. Setting off on motorbikes - Suzuki DRs - they travelled around Lesotho to Uppington, then through Namibia to Windhoek, and east through Botswana to Maun. Then on to Zambia and have arrived in Tanzania. They are seen in the photo with another Couchsurfer Alton (right) who also crashed with us.

Follow the trip of the bikers on their blog here - ZA to TZ

Day at the Races

The Durban July is Africa's biggest horseracing event and one we usually don't miss and about the only party we ever dress up for. It's a day of fashion, drinks freely flowing and a small bet on the main race.. alas first time I have won nothing!! Yellow Zebra, an eyewear supplier treated us to tickets in their marquee and we had a superb day in the sun.
