Lake Naverone
After Grant and Angela's wedding I hired a car and went back up to the Drakensburg on my own while they went off on their honeymoon. I did have plans to go on safari but they fell through, however things worked out well in the end as I ended up at Lake Naverone - a very chilled out place, ideal if you've been stressed out at work for several months.

The setting is simply stunning and for a city-bod like myself the silence is amazing - all you could hear was the odd bird call. Also I was never aware just how many stars there are in the sky - it was like visiting an observatory every night - there's virtually zero light pollution. The nearest town was a small place called Underburg where I stocked up on provisions. It was about 25km away on a pot-holed winding road that was imense fun to drive along - you feel like you are taking part in a rally (well if you drive like I do you do).

Nice photos. They make me wonder why I ever left the "country" for city life.

It kind of reminded me that I haven't been a city boy all my life. Give me a cottage in the countryside (with a broadband connection) and I think I'd be very happy.

Heh, I'm a rural kind of person myself. The rush of cities isn't something I can deal easily with... I like more relaxed lifestyles.
