So on the 26th we drove from applesbosch to the drankensburg where we were gonna be staying in a hostel a the bottom of the mountains. on monday at about 8 am-ish we went for a long hike up the mountain which was beautiful we got to see 3 rock art sites which were really neat and then we hiked back down the mountain and got caught in a really awesome gum ball sized hail storm with thunder and lighting crashing around us! on tuesday we drove up the Sani pass into Lesotho its the only way to get into the country from this side of the mountain, it was a rough ride!! but very beautiful and neat to learn about the history none of which i could re-tell haha . the the following we day we drove back to applesbosch.
