Knysna

We stayed at the Old Drift Lodges on the outskirts of Knysna. These lodges are set in the depths of the forest with a very steep access road. We had use of canoes here, but as the weather wasn't as good as it should have been we only went out a couple of times. On one afternoon we were surrounded by a troop of vervet monkeys which were on the scrounge. Carol did her best to discourage them.



Old Drift is now part of the new Simola Golf Estate which is very swish. This is the view from the clubhouse towards the heads at Knysna.



Bedroom companion found on Sue's side of the bedroom. Later released unharmed.



We visited the Knysna Elephant Park which is now home to 5 elephants there were a lot more here originally.
