Hole In The Wall – Chilling On The Wild Coast

I met a lady by the name of Jessica – not sure what her surname is?? She works at sugarloaf backpackersdoing bar right now and teaches the owners kids pre-primary school in the morning. I like her vibe she’s chilled and seems to be down to earth – someone I think I could become good friends with. She has been here for a little while now and wanted to do something on her off day so we decided to make a mission to hole in the wall (one of the main attractions here on the wild coast)


There were a few of us going on the trip I can’t recall everyone’s name right now but we were a good bunch of people that decided to go. Kappie (the guy that works with me ) drove us out there in the morning after we got some beers and chow for the day. The road up to hole in the wall was pretty epic, lots of heavy ditches and shit – I was sitting in the back and it felt like I was in a fucking washing machine, but we made it safely eventually J

After parking it was another 800 metre walk to the best spots on the shore for braaing and some shade. I took my camera with because I want to make a movie clip with some panning shots of the wall for the blog and you tube. I made a solo mission to capture some shots and clips of the view. I didn’t realize how long I had been gone for – I was enjoying the walk way too much to be concerned with time and completely immersed myself in the beauty of my surroundings. It was fantastic!




I got back to everyone else and they were already preparing something to eat for our group. I grabbed a beer, my book and found a shaded spot for a bit of reading whilst listening to the waves breaking through the hole in the wall. Sounded something like BA-BOOM SHSHSHSSSSHHHH. 

Epic

We all ate, enjoyed interesting conversation and relaxed for the whole day. It was good, really good and I felt connected out there, a good kind of connection like with the earth. After getting back to camp I was so tired man, I went to the bar had a whiskey and a smoke watched a movie with the guys and went straight to bed.
