Upon arriving in Grahamstown along the scenic route from Port Elizabeth we could feel the heat of Grahamstown.
The day we got there it was very hot and dry, we desperately looked for a place to cool down,but wherever we went it was hot.
Later in the evening we all sat at a poolside and had a braai,it was my first experience of this lovely little town they call "The city of saints"

Set high on the banks of The Great Fish - River, overhanging a cliff edge , offering sweeping views of the valley bushveld landscape.

the village,25 km south -west of Grahamstown,is one of the original 1820 settler villages.
It was the home of Richard Gush,the famous Quaker pacifist.
The Methodist Church where settlers took refuge from attacks is a national monument.
This church is also the oldest Methodist Church in South Africa.
