Jeffreys Bay, RSA
The Garden Route begins at Storms River Mouth at its eastern end. The N2 from PE to Storms River Mouth is beautiful the whole way, even if not a part of the Garden Route. In fact, about 75km from PE is Jeffreys Bay. Supposedly Jeannette had seen this beach before as it was featured in (and became famous after) Endless Summer. But as this movie was a chore to watch, she doesn’t exactly recall. She will always remember visiting Jeffreys Bay though. It was gorgeous. We picked up some cappuccinos at a beachfront coffee house and watched an impromptu, pickup soccer game between some Brazilian tourists and local kids.
On our way out of town we stopped at the mall (a HUGE mall) to pick up medications for our now out-of-control colds. The pharmacist was super helpful and aided our navigation of the foreign under-the-counter-is-still-behind-the-counter-and-needs-a-pharmacist’s-sticker system.
