Maseru, Lesotho 20151028

You can tell that Lesotho is not a popular tourist destination.  Our morning stops were mainly government buildings and a square.

Road to Lesotho 20151027

Just as we were leaving the Cavern Resort, we saw a group of blooming Jacaranda trees, and our tour bus had to stop for photos.

Our path went around Drakensberg mountains, so we were treated with beautiful landscape along the way.

We took a wrong road that led us to this village.  Our drivers realized right away and turned back quickly.  Kids in the village were happy to see us.
