Drakensberg

Starting out, confident and full of energy.
Last weekend we rented a car and drove to the Drakensberg. Beautiful country right near the border of Lesotho, we hiked/climbed a bluff about 600m tall. The pictures can tell the rest of the story after the break.

Shembe

Shembe is one of the local Zulu religions which has gained popularity in recent times. On Saturday's, you see "Shembe circles" scattered across the countryside. It's essentially a blend of Christian moral principles with local beliefs and as such strays heavily from the Gospel. If you were looking for something new to pray about, here's a good candidate.
