Rest and Recuperation

After the crazy launch week, we were really fortunate that the Friday was a bank holiday to celebrate King Sobhuza II’s birthday.  He was the previous king who ruled from 1921 until he died in 1982, and negotiated Swaziland’s independence from Britain in 1968.  I hadn’t really realized that it was coming up, but luckily for me some others were more organized and arranged a trip to Blyde River Canyon in South Africa (apparently one of the largest in the world).  It was great to see some on the area near Swaziland, do some walking and have a very relaxing weekend.

Below are some views from our walk.
