I am currently sitting at the back of a bus heading for Knysna from Tsitsikamma on South Africa’s famed Garden Route with a bit of spare time so thought I would flick through a post to let you all know that I have added a new map to the blog.
Nev (our ever reliable driver) has been recording most of the driving that he has been doing in Truck, as well as where we have pitched our tents via the Garmin that sits on Truck’s dash. He has allowed me (the resident computer geek) to download this information and make it available via our blog (and Google maps).
You can view most of the locations where we have camped by either clicking here, or browsing to the blog and selecting the “Campsites” menu item. When browsing to the page you can click on the “View Larger Map” link below the map and it will take you to Google, where, as per usual you will be able to zoom in (and out) and all that sort of stuff.
Please note that I only have data as far south as Kumba in Cameroon at this stage and only the camping locations can be made available in an easy to use manner. The reason for this is two fold; one, Nev has not yet downloaded the information south of Kumba, and two, if I upload all of the points that make up exactly where we have driven Google seems to throw a bit of a wobbly… I am looking into this and hope to have some sort of solution before the end of the century.
Hope you enjoy seeing where we have been lucky enough to stay, play, drink, cook and basically live the dream.
More campsite locations should be available in the not too distant future.
