The past few months have been quite busy! Christmas, New Years in Amsterdam, packing my London flat up and moving back to South Africa. Once back in SA,I spent a week in Johannesburg before I packed my bag again, heading back to the airport for a 2 month stint in Cape Town!
We have been on a few adventures and tried to do different things such as going up Table Mountain for my birthday (FYI: South African citizens go up for free on their birthdays); Maynardville Open air theatre to watch the Shakespeare play "Comedy of Errors" and a trip to the planetarium! I even ventured onto the beach... it was windy and sandy, but the view of Table Mountain and the kite surfers was fantastic!
We spent a day in the wine lands, tasting wine at Laborie in Paarl. The wine tasting itself was R15 for 5 wines and you could choose from a wide selection of whites, reds, sparkling and fortified wine (they also have a brandy that you can taste)! My favourites of the day were the Merlot Cabernet Sauvignon '10 as well as the Pineau de Laborie. The Pineau de Laborie is a fortified wine made from Pinotage grapes, which I imagine would be amazing served chilled accompanied by a cheese board containing a mature cheddar. After Laborie we headed through to Under Oaks for lunch at their Pizzeria.
The Planetarium at the South African Museum and was only R25 for a show! I went to see the "The Sky Tonight" which was really fascinating and a cheap alternative to going to the movies!
My camera is unfortunately in for a service, but I have taken a few photos on my phone - so please excuse the quality! I should have some photos of a higher quality to post at a later stage. I also have some photos from Amsterdam that I would love to share - but that will have to wait till I have more than 150mb of internet a day and time to tell the story!
Within in the next few weeks I should be travelling back to London for 3 months, and as much as I love being home (and warm!!!), I am really excited to get back! I am really hoping to get tickets for the Christian Louboutin exhibition at the Design Museum - One of my resolutions is to buy a pair of Louboutins!
Hope you enjoy the photos :)
