On Thursday we will be leaving Durban in the early hours of the morning to Cape Town, via the Garden Route.

We are spending Thursday night in East London and then a week in Plettenberg Bay, before heading for Cape Town for three nights in Sea Point. We will make our way home via the Karoo, spending a night near Colesberg.

I would love to hear suggestions as to the "must see" places along the way. Of course, my trusty camera will be coming along! Some of the places we will be stopping at include Port Alfred, Jeffreys Bay, Cape St Francis and Vic Bay near George. I am also looking forward to the crystal clear night skies of the Karoo.

So what are the spots that we dare not miss?
