Back in South Africa

July 14
Up and out and good bye Roma, good bye Lesotho. We had planned on taking the scenic route out of the country, but had to change plans and take the most direct route out of dodge.
The drive was still beautiful, the border crossing uneventful (thankfully) and we stopped in the lovely town of Clarens for lunch and some gallery hopping. Clarens was, to say the least, a far cry from anything we had seen in Lesotho!
To quote Elizabeth, we were "driving, driving, driving - herdsmen, driving, driving, driving - some sheep and a shepherd boy, driving, driving, driving - some hills, a mountain, some more sheep and cows. Driving, driving, driving - border. Driving, driving, driving - Santa Fe like Artists' Colony."
Striking to say the least.

From bus windows, this is what we saw:
