I am busy planning my 40th trip to Lesotho. It is such a beautiul country. They call it the mountain kingdom.
It is the country on earth with the highest low point. No part of Lesotho is below 1000ft.

Although very beautiful, it is also very rugged. The people are very hardy. There are about 350 000 herdboys in Lesotho. They live remotely in the mountains. Some of them are only 8 years old.

I tried to post some pics but it seems I've still got to work out how

Regards Dave

 

Let me try again[X(]

Those look great! Did you buy one of those conical hats? Or a blanket maybe?

I have a "genuine" Basotho blanket that says, "Made in Sheffield, England"
