Personal highlights

  2. Fly fishing: picking the right fly and then swinging the rod hard
  3. eNtokozweni: staying at the old mill and fishing with the owner
  4. Mc Donalds: fishing at a small local pond allegedly full of trouts
  5. Drinking: my host offers me some coffee - with schnapps in it!
