Well I got to Cintsa a few days ago after only spending a couple of days in Coffee Bay. Well everyone I've met travelling has said that you must go to Coffee Bay, so I though as I'd missed it on the way up by spending too much time in Cintsa I had to go on the way back down. Well I planned to stay for five days as I was sure after what everyone had told me I'd want to spend at least that much time there. I cut it short to only two days, it was a nice place but I didn't get the vibe there and it just wasn't Cintsa. So I decided I was better spending more time in Cintsa where a know a lot of people. It's been quite nice coming back to a place where a know people and it feels a bit like a home, feels like I never left! Sitting in the Barefoot cafe all day eating and drinking, oh and the volleyball with free wine is also very good.
Well I'm off the Hogsback in a few minutes, another place I was supposed to go to on the way up! Staying in the mountains at a hostel called Away with the Fairies. Now all the locals and the people who work in the hostel here say I must go, so I don't think I'll be disappointed. After going the I'm coming back to Cintsa for one last time, (can't stay away!), before I head back down to Cape Town to head off so Sydney.
I've got mixed emotions about leaving South Africa, part of me is looking forward to going to a new place and part of me is sad to be leaving. I know I'm going to have a great time in Australia and I do think that I have spent the right amount of time here and it is now time to move on. I just hope that the people in Australia are as welcoming and friendly as everyone here.
I am sure you will find Australians just as welcoming. So glad you enjoyed SA so much.
ReplyDeleteDid you read Dads question about your diving certificate(have both of them now). You might need them in Oz

I can't believe it's nearly time for the next continent - the time is whizzing by! What date are you flying exactly? Remember you can look up Anna in Sydney. Just let me know if you want me to contact her for you.
