Exploring beautiful Cape Town
January 1 in South Africa ⋅ ☀️ 27 °C
This city is the most beautiful place! We did the obligatory sightseeing bus tour, followed by a harbour boat tour and a stroll along V&A waterfront. We also found the best drinks and foodie place - TimeOut Market 🤩
And all of that in wonderful 30 degrees 😍🇿🇦Read more

What a beautiful scenery Tabe Mountain is!! It truly deserves to be a New Wonder of the Natural World 🌍
Once back in town, there was the Minstrel Carnival. I don’t think we have ever seen so many people in one place. How lucky we are that we got to experience this 🤩Read more

Day 7
Back in Cape Town 🤍
January 5 in South Africa ⋅ ☁️ 20 °C
After an exciting morning safari on horseback, we took our transfer back to Cape Town. The weather is turning a bit for the next days but still 22 degrees - so can’t really complain :)
We found a cute roof top bar to enjoy our evening before our hike to Lions Head the next morning.

James is only partially amazed 😅🫣Read more

Day 8
Lions Head & Camps Bay
January 6 in South Africa ⋅ ☀️ 21 °C
In the morning, we did an exhausting but rewarding climb up to Lions Head 🦁. The weather didn’t look promising when we started, but the sun came out once we were up - it was magical!
After that, we enjoyed a very relaxing day in Camps Bay with incredible sea food and lots of fantastic wine (might have had one too many 🤭)Read more

Day 9
Arrival in Hermanus
January 7 in South Africa ⋅ ☁️ 18 °C
With our (very) little rental car Rufus, we continued our honeymoon and drove to Hermanus. The weather turned a little so it was rather cloudy, but it didn’t change how impressed we are yet again by the stunning nature around us.

From here on, we are kicking off a week of vineyards and wine tasting. Can’t wait 😬🇿🇦🍷Read more

Day 10
The beginning of our Tour de Wine 🍷🇿🇦
January 8 in South Africa ⋅ ☀️ 25 °C
Hermanus is all about whales, food and wine. As it currently isn’t whaling season, we “have to” focus on the other two 😬😇
Luckily, this plays to our strengths and we put our heart and soul into it…

To try and balance wine consumption with at least a bit of health, we have done parts of the costal path. It is stunning nature around here and every corner offers a surprise!

Dinner was at Dutchies, a local fish restaurant right by Grotto Beach - one of the most stunning beaches we have ever seen.

What a trip ❤️Read more

Day 12
Tour de Wine - Stage 2
January 10 in South Africa ⋅ ☁️ 21 °C
Ahead of our second stage of the Tour de Wine, we wanted to further explore Hermanus and its harbour. Sadly, this isn’t really an area to explore - having ended up in a Township by accident. Not scary at all, just uncomfortable to drive by such poverty 😕

So we gave in and drove straight back to the vineyards, exploring more wine we haven’t tasted yet.

To finish off our second stage, we had dinner in a wine restaurant with 1/2 kg of Shrimps each for good measure 😇🤩Read more
