Beatiful scenery on the way to Qacha's Nek...

This is an incredible view only visible as you drive from Quthing to Qacha's Nek, the hometown of Professor Pakalitha Mosisili, our current Prime Minister.
Enjoy the tour...
This is the Orange River(Senqu as called in Sesotho), the largest river in Southern Africa. It drains right into the Indian Ocean.
 
This poor vehicle didn't finish the journey. You gotta drive very carefully as you tour Lesotho, my beloved country.

Mountain Flocks


Livestock are a main source of income for the mountain communities and are well tended by shepherds.  A common site everywhere are shepherds in their mountain dress with flocks of sheep and goats, herds of cattle and of course horses and donkeys.  The serenity of these sights carry through long after the encounter has passed.
