For almost half a year I’ve been planning this next trip. However with just one week to go actually the only thing planned is the first week of scuba diving.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This will be a spectacular week: I am going to do the Sardine Run. This spectacular event happens only once a year. Huge shoals of sardines will pass the coast of Kwazulu Natal, attracting all kinds of predators: different species of shark, dolphin and whale can make their appearance. Let’s hope for some good action!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
