Knysna South Africa - The Heart of the Garden Route | 90+ Countries With 3 Kids
Located on South Africa’s famous Garden Route, Knysna (pronounced as ‘ny-zah’), is one of the country’s most famous locations. It is a natural paradise of lush, indigenous forests, tranquil lakes, wildlife and golden beaches. The breathtakingly pretty lagoon is now a protected marine reserve that is home to the extraordinary sea horse and over 200 species of fish.
The endangered Knysna seahorse is named after the town and can be spotted during a good snorkeling session in the estuary.
We really enjoyed the view from the heads - a striking geological spot made up of a pair of huge, brightly coloured cliffs lying at the mouth of the lagoon, flanking a channel of potentially treacherous water that flows into Knysna lagoon. We were told that from the banks of the rocks we could see whales because Knysna is on the migratory route of the Southern Right and other species but unfortunately we weren't able to see one these marine mammals.
Enjoy the video and let us know where you’re watching from!

South Africa Adventure: Cape Town and Stellenbosch - Pilot Lindy VLOG #60
// CAPE TOWN & STELLENBOSCH - A helicopter flight over the Cape Peninsula, visiting Penguins in Boulders Beach, riding horses near giraffes and zebras in Stellenbosch: An AMAZING START of our holidays in South Africa!
A lifelong dream came true: We visited South Africa! We were there for 12 days and really made the most out of it!! This video is the first of the three South Africa VLOGs that I made and is all about our first 4 days in South Africa.
DAY 1: Arrived to Cape Town, visited the Table Mountain (but the cableway was closed) and drove to Signal Hill (near Lion's Head) to relax and watch the sunset.
DAY 2: We woke up in our bed&breakfast in Woodstock district and walked to the Old Biscuit Mill where on Saturdays there is a market. We had breakfast there and did some shopping! We then took the car to the V&A waterfront, walked to Bo-Kaap to see the colourful houses and when back at the waterfront, the helicopter was waiting for us to take us on a 25-minute flight over the Cape Peninsula and around the Table Mountain. We saw the twelve apostles from the air! We then relaxed the rest of the day in Cape Town.
DAY 3: A rainy day in Cape Town, but regardless of the weather we got in the car to visit the Cape Peninsula as planned. We took the Chapman Peak Drive, which because of the weather wasn't as spectacular as it should have been! But arriving to Simon's Town and spotting the first penguins at Boulders Beach, really made our day! After seeing hundreds of penguins with their babies, we continued our trip to Cape Point and Cape of Good Hope. Spectacular! On the way back, we took the Chapman Peak Drive again, during sunset. The view was AMAZING!
DAY 4: We left our bed&breakfast and drove in one hour to Stellenbosch. We went horse riding through a sanctuary and saw many springboks, zebra's and even giraffes very close to us! Our guide said that it was the first time that mommy-giraffe let us be so close to her newborn!! When leaving the sanctuary, we passed on the horse through the vineyards and finished with a nice wine tasting, as Stellenbosch is famous for the wine! We had planned to stay in Stellenbosch the rest of the day, but there was one thing we felt we still really had to do: Go to the top of the Table Mountain! So we drove back to Cape Town and the cableway was open! We were very very happy to have seen the view from up there! After sunset we drove back to Stellenbosch to have some good rest for the next day.
Our South Africa adventure will continue through the Garden Route, De Hoop Nature Reserve, Plettenberg Bay, Tsitsikamma National Park, Port Elizabeth and Addo Elephant National Park, but all of that you will see in the next VLOG!
Thank you for watching and I can't wait to show you part two of this awesome South African Adventure!
Enjoy watching!!

Victoria Falls Zambia - An Awe Inspiring Experience You'll Never Forget | 90+ Countries With 3 Kids
“I will go anywhere, provided it is forward.” ― David Livingstone
Victoria Falls is every traveller's’ paradise because it’s one-of a kind mix of rich colonial history, astounding natural beauty and welcoming people. If you are planning a visit, apart from a going to one of the seven wonders of Nature, the Victoria Falls, you should check out the Livingstone Museum and enjoy the beautiful sunsets.
The Livingstone Museum is the oldest and largest museum in Zambia. It is separated into several sections covering archaeology, history and ethnography. The most memorable exhibits include a collection of original David Livingstone memorabilia, including signed letters and tribal artefacts from his travels.
However, if you ask us the best part after a day touring the museum and Victoria Falls sightseeing is a beautiful sunset.
