We were stranded in Plettenberg Bay after rain and lowering clouds and mist thwarted our attempt to get to Agulhas. Marc in ETD and I in ZDL made a dash for the coast in rain and mist and were both able to land at the Plettenberg Bay airfield where we hangered the planes for 2 nights to wait out the weather. We stayed in Plett for one night, then drove to Knysna for the 2nd night... highly recommended are the Waterfront apartments - we rented one for the night and enjoyed the best sushi I have ever eaten, along with copious Marguaritas, shooters and drinks - at 34 South deg on the Waterfront... sushi crumbed and deep fried.. yum!!
