"Someone" did. :) Unfortunately the response was that they are already in Cape Town and not planning to go inland. They are making for Swaziland and Mozambique and points north, via the coast.

Hey there,

We changed our plans:
We'll drive all the way to Durban on N2 and heading north from there to Pretoria, because we'll meet Wernher from http://www.aircooledwonders.com and we'll try to get our visas for Malawi, Ethiopia and Sudan there at the embassies.

Our route up north will be the following: Mozambique, Malawi, Tanzania, Kenya, Ethiopia, Egypt (SHIP TO) Turkey and from there to Austria, Europe.

Would be great to meet you guys!

Air-cooled regards from Herbie's World Tour,

Oh!
I am so sorry, I was not following this blog since my last entry!

We are still in Mossel Bay!
But unfortunately today or tomorrow we'll go camping at in Victoria Bay. From there we'll be heading towards Uitenhage, Durban and from there to Pretoria.

Air-cooled regards from Herbie's World Tour,

Domi
