Til jer som ikke gider sl op i et atlas er Lesotho er et selvstndigt land som ligger ca. 400 km syd for Pretoria. Det ligger midt inde i Sydafrika og er omkrnset hele vejen rundt.

Our intention today was to hike and hitch as far into Lesotho as possible. It was becoming a beautiful warm morning with not a cloud in the sky perfect for hiking and taking in the majestic mountain scenery and fresh air. Just past the hotel and golf course we were greeted by two horsemen who were both carrying large rifles slung http://www.travelblog.org/Africa/Lesotho/Sani-Top/blog-62888.html
