Around town

Friday 10th
Off to see a very old winery founded in 1685 called Groot Constantia, an old Cape Dutch building that belonged to Simon van der Stel who was an early Governor of Cape Town. The building was originally built by slave labour

We did a tour through this original old homestead with its Cape Dutch furniture

it is obvious why that old furniture is still around

I wonder how Craig would go bush bashing in this

After a good look around and a small sampling of the wines we headed off over the mountains to a lovely fishing port called Hout Bay for some lunch. We sat right on the waters edge and watched the seals playing in the water whilst we ate.

The food was good and the view was great.

After lunch we meandered our way home through some of the amazing bayside suburbs

Cape town is made up of many such bays such as this.
