Drakensberg road trip

We decided to bag our already paid for train tickets to drive to Johannesbu. The country side is just too beautiful to miss. We were on our way to Drakensberg. Probably has the most beautiful scenery I've ever seen. The next day after driving we hiked Sentenal peak next to Lesotho (a country within a country). To get there we had to drive on a narrow cliff side with breath taking views on either side. When we reached the top after hiking it was foggy and we couldn't see down so we all took a nap on top of the mountain in hopes it would clear up and when we woke up we found ourselves surrounded by more clouds, but then started walking and the clouds cleared for breathtaking views. We drank from the streams, which tastes much better than in the city of Drakensberg where for the first time we had to boil our drinking water.
Next day we woke up at 3am to get the car back by 9 heading to Johan. Quite foggy while our car is filed to the brim and we couldn't get past speeds of 70 km.
Our wonderland
