Arrived at our accommodation in Graskop. Ummm it's slightly weird, it feels like we are living in a Victorian time warp. The ladies who run this place are very nice & it's clean with plenty of hot water, but there is just too much lace & Victoriana for me. If there were dolls as well that'd push it well over the edge of creepy & I'd be moving out! We are booked here for 4 nights but have decided our drive to Harrismith on Saturday is too long, so have arranged to spend Friday night at a halfway point instead.
We spent the afternoon checking out the Lisbon Falls (better than expected) and God's window (not as good as expected). Will go exploring further north tomorrow.
We had dinner in a place recommended by "the ladies". OMG while not Victorian the time warp extended a few 100 years & landed in the 70's. The food was mediocre (actually that is being generous) & stodgy, but it was the ambience that cracked us up laughing. The music was a loop track of schmaltzy 70's romantics which rather embarrassingly, we knew quite a few of the words to. All in all it was a relief to escape.

 Lisbon Falls generating its own rainbow, it was quite late when we got there and the shadows had begun encroaching |  As the shadow moved up the waterfall it allowed more arty images |
The view from God's window. That dirty brown line is smoke pollution
