We went to the beach!! OK, so it was last September and we could use another beach trip now but at least we got to go to an African beach once. We went to Ballito which is a great beach area north of Durban in South Africa. Places right on the beach were quite reasonably priced:
We had great weather - and were a bit lucky because it can be temperamental. We had sun for all but the last day and a half which was when we finally found a particular beach that I had wanted to see which was fun to explore even on our cold cloudy day:
At various points along the coast in Ballito there are tidal pools built. This one is actually Olympic sized:
This is a smaller one close to where we stayed.
It was fun to stay in South Africa. We don't normally have a sense of lack in Harare, but when we went to my favorite chain (Fruit-n-Veg) the choice and the prices were amazing. We did a self catering place and usually I want to go out to eat on vacation. But we had a grill and a housekeeper and enjoyed lovely dinners at home with two nights out (one good, one bad).
