Sunrise at Sani Top Chalet was not something Matt and I could accomplish.
Luckily Anice was adamant she would get up at 4am to capture the amazing sight on camera, so here are some pics courtesy of her.
After we woke up and all had breakfast, we twisted and winded our way down Sani Pass.Standing at an incredible 2865 metres, it is the highest pass in South Africa.
Offering breathtaking views and tricky to manoever corners, we passed other trucks, cars, motorcyclists, quad bikes and cyclists - going UPhill!
Without any major incident, we crossed back into South Africa and continued onwards towards the Central Drakensburg Mountain, aiming for a campsite for the night.
For lunch, we stopped to dine in a cozy little tavern restaurant.See pic of Matt and his roasted pig's leg.
It was enormous, and we finished the rest of it for breakfast the next morning.
After a few mis-leading routes, we arrived at the White Mountain Lodge.See pic of the imposing Drakensburg Mountains, around dusk.
Exhausted from the long driving day, we pitched our tents, scrubbed ourselves clean and settled in for a nice long sleep.
