Lets get this show on the road

 T minus 2 sees us in our rented Golf and Konstantin & crew cruise into a very wet and windy L'Agulhas within seconds of each other. We are joined in a round of schnapps by Gardy & Willie, friends of the Bahmanns, who came along to witness the send off.

With the storm reaching a peak we decide, lets do it. We grab the iced bubbly and head out for the southern most point of Africa. By the time we have walked the 50m to the plaque that marks the point we are soaked. Uli draws his panga and within seconds the champers has been sabraged.
