Tuesday(A funny creature)


My legs are still feeling a little sore from the running down a mountain, so going to give surfing a miss. I moved to a different hostel, one on Marsh St called Mossel Bay Backpackers(www.gardenrouteadventures.com) which has a pool, better security and I thought for a while a room to myself. I bought a hat for 15R, but managed to loose it on Thursday, but wasn’t too bad as quite sure if the logo gave the right impression.
I took a walk past the beach, and saw finally got to see people trying surging, and continued on a walk to Dai beach along the cliff, it was a lovely scenic walk, but turned back when the path turned to slush. I had a superb moment on the way back,
I saw a Dassie, and quickly snapped a photo of it, then a few steps later realised there were huge numbers of them, with their funny little faces. In the eve I went out to a restaurant called Jazzbury to try Mopane worms, the place was a huge disappointment, they didn’t have them, so had Bobottie, which wasn’t done well in my opinion, it stuck me as bland mince meat topped with an egg and an apricot, with cinnamon donought pieces and sweet potato, which smells to my mind of stewed apple. When I came back to the hostel chatted to Marta, a kitesurfing German, later on two Londoners turned up, one an ex-Streatham resident, now living in Earlsfield.
