Winter sunshine in Durban

Nothing better than a public holiday to get up early and have some fun in the city. 10km cycle along the Durban beachfront followed by breakfast was the way to go. It's the same time of year as the 2010 World Cup Football in Durban and the weather again is absolutely stunning. Beach weather, suntanning and the perfect time to be outdoors.

Durban Skyye

I was up early this morning to get some great shots of the Durban coastline from my plane and to promote my flight school Durban Skyye which opens soon.
