The Polela River, South Africa...

Here's an amalgamation of photos from 2 days on the Polela River in South Africa. It's a super fun river with a few nice drops and trickier rapids with loads of fun continuous sections in between. Enjoy.

Ok, that's the photos from that trip, I went and spent 4 days up in Zimbabwe after that, I'll put some photos from that trip up soon.

Happy Paddling.

South Africa... ...it's a mini adventure...

I've just spent a week in SA before flying up to see my parents in Vic Falls for a few days. Well this is my hire car, because of reasons known as Polly getting mad and pulling the steering wheel off his own car this was our shuttle vehicle for a week...


Only problem which I admit in this photo is hard to see is that the wheels were made of lego and even puddles were a problem.

After checking out the level of the Polela River we had to call our friends to give us a push after I slipped off the road and the front grounded out!!

I love hire cars!!

More pics from our South African adventure to come soon...
