That's your first string...

 

hahah i dont even know how to get there :blush:

and the website hasnt got a map. fail

 

Coming from Durban, take the Liberty Midlands off ramp and turn right over the N3. Turn left and go past the shopping centre on your RHS. Keep going straight and the road eventually heads right. Somewhere you need to turn left and you go past Cascades Shopping centre on your RHS. Not sure about distances, but I am sure there will be signs and the locals are generally quite helpful.

 

Otherwise try Google Maps.

hopefully the weatehr holds tomorrow for the XCO otherwise i am not taking the MKII along for photos.

 

my 7D loves water... well at least it hasnt done anything funny on me yet with a spritz of water here and there.

weather proofing seems half decent as long as i watch my lenses and dont take a heavy downpour i think ill be okay.

 

sat afternoon looks like it will see most of the rain fall. quite a fair amount actually.

or you take liberty off ramp - follow the road till the traffic circle - take 3rd exit on traffic circle and head up the hill past the hospital. 3rd set of traffic lights turn right - you will see cascades and virgin active and people

Pretty overcast outside now. Have to see what tomorrow brings. Bit of rain make things a bit different. Some of those tech bits " in the slippery " going to be fun.
