Like riding a wild horse...

Josh and Skye
We went to a local food/craft market called the Sedgefild market ... about 15 times larger than the moss street market in Victoria.
Stunning local tree that is an ocean of red blossoms
Passion fruit popsicles to help with the heat
Yogesh took as on a drive through the local township ... to show us how things look for many of the people in South Africa. Good for us to see the reality experienced my most of the locals. There was lots of evidence of attempts of solid infrastructure that would not have been there a few decades ago. Good to see...
Ronato and Yogesh

Thieissen Island -- a little like a Granville Island concept but in Knysna... This is the pool at a small boutique hotel.
Having lunch on Yogesh's deck over looking the Knysna lagoon
Another view of the lagoon below from Yogesh's house
Coney Glen at the heads where the ocean opens up into the lagoon ... wild sea but very beautiful.
Yogesh and Pippin -- going on a small hike to find a swimming spot
The swimming spot -- a lovely pool. The thing is it was not very wise to swim there because the ocean was ridiculously rough and the waves kept pounding over the rocks and pushing us around. Luckily we got out just in time before a few much larger waves came pummeling through.

Pippin and Kheli
A much calmer place to swim to escape the heat ...
Kheli and Pippin chilling out

Pippin drinking her favourite South African drink ... Appletiser.
