I went hiking with Evan, Skyler and Daniel today up through Constantia Nek and down through Nursery Ravine into Kirstenbosch Gardens. Evan’s research project is studying an area around here that is prone to landslides and he wanted to scope it out, so we went with him. It was a great hike. The view was incredible as usual, and it was nice as always to go through Kirstenbosch Gardens.
This evening we had a housemate home-made lasagna dinner over at the #9 house (where two girls from the program live, the rest of us live in the 12 person house). Everyone chipped in helping out and the lasagna turned out delicious, full of veggies.
I spent the rest of the evening packing and preparing for our Garden Route road trip!! Five people are flying to Durban, and the other five are driving from Cape Town, and we are meeting in the middle at Addo Elephant Park and driving back together. I am doing the trip that only involves driving.
In addition, I am feeling very independent - we rented our own car, booked our own accommodations, planned our own activities, and we are just going to see what we see and feel like along the way! The Garden Route is a section of the Eastern Cape province that is one of the most picturesque drives, with cute towns and national parks along the way. So excited!
