DSCF1864静かなロッジから海を見ながらの朝食。
向かい側に、オーストリアから3ヶ月の休暇でオートバイツーリングに来た夫婦がいた。私のこの先のルートを聞いて閉口。。
I had breakfast with ocean view from the quiet lodge.
There was a couple who came from Australia for 3 months vacation for their motorbike touring at my opposite side. They became quiet when they heard about my former route from here...

DSCF1866ロッジの中には沢山の絵画が。
There are many art works in the lodge.






DSCF1867日本の船が座礁した絵が多かった。有名な事件だったのかな?
There were many pictures in which the Japanese ship ran on a rock. Is it the famous accident?

DSCF1879急勾配の峠を上りきり、下りにさしかかるといきなり眼下に広がる吸い込まれるように海に伸びる町。その先がケープタウン。
When I go up the peak of a steep slope and I comes to getting down, the town which spreads toward the sea so that it may be inhaled suddenly will spread in my view.
Cape Town is over there.


DSCF1888どんどん大都市的な道の作りに変わっていく。
It changes to structure of a big city road rapidly.






DSCF1898本日最もショックだったこと。異臭を感じた思ったらスラム街(いっていいだろう)が広がっており、またそれが延々と続いた。その距離、十数キロはあると思う。本当に、本当に長く続いた。南アフリカの光と影。
Today's the most shocking thing that the slums (probably, I may say) will spread out, and it continued for long right after I felt the unusual smell. The distance is about ten of km I think. It continues really really long. It is the light and the shadow of South Africa.
