**options!** Inviting people, resources and options...for this amazing Journey.


What do I desire to see while I am here?

What is my Intention for this exploration and sampling of SA...

Cape Town.
the Cape Good Hope

the Wilds...
animals, landscapes,the land calls...how can I get there??

the Garden Route " Garden Route is a very scenic stretch on the south-eastern coast of South Africa (Eastern Cape), starting at Mossel Bay and finishing at Storms River."

This route takes visitors east along the coast from Cape Town, past spectacular coastal scenery and through indigenous forests surrounding the beautiful town of Knysna. End your Garden Route trip with a visit to the Addo Elephant National Park near Port Elizabeth, where you are guaranteed good sightings of these lumbering giants.

Succulent venison cuts such as zebra, impala, crocodile and ostrich, along with domestic meats, are skewered on Masaai swords and charcoal grilled over an open, circular fire dominating the centre of restaurant. Home-made soup and bread is served to start; sauces, salads and pap to accompany; and a dawa (vodka, honey and lime) to wash it all down.


Adam's Calendar:

There are numerous myths and theories about the origins of man, and both Adams Calendar and Stone Circle Ruins give evidence to the existence of early civilizations. Adam’s calendar is a 750,000 year old stone calendar, pre-dating all other man-made structures. It is clearly positioned to record the solstice, equinoxes and days of the year and is evidence of consciousness amongst the earliest humans in Africa.
