We will be fit after living here for a month...

The hill that leads down to our villa is quite a steep one, the beach isn't called Lower Bay for nothing.  It is also off the main track for the dollar vans so in order to make use of cheap public transportation one has to hike up the hill to the main road.  Being New Yorkers a little walking does not scare us, but i think after living here we can move to San Fran and not blink an eye at the streets over there.

It starts off rather well walking along the lovely beach, then the hill starts...

Looks ok, but about half way up you start panting because its always about 80-90F...and pushing a stroller does not help! Ivy has learned to walk up the steepest parts otherwise she is left at the bottom of the hill.  Just when you think its over you turn the corner and see this!

Alas its only the last tough stretch before you are rewarded with a relatively flat road and magnificent views over Port Elizabeth
