An early morning pack up operation leaves the drive out of Kosi Bay tainted with that subtle feeling of having left something behind.
We make good time to Ballito and stop at the much revered Lifestyle Centre. Julian and I divide and conquer, sticking to our comforts. I emerge victorious from the outdoor stores with a few items for the hike, Julian similarly from Woolworths.
We discover that we’ve left a kettle behind with Amy and Conor.
I see a numberplate in front of us at a toll gate. It’s a silver Range Rover and I can’t seem to work out the numberplate “Bra i 1”. So I read it out loud to myself, and it clicks. Julian and I take a few hours to get over the hilarity of it.
