    Today it was time to check out of our amazing accomodation in Milnerton and head across to the wine capital of South Africa - Stellenbosch.
    Fun facts: South Africa is the world’s 8th largest wine producer, sixth largest exporter, and over 80% of their wine is consumed domestically.
    We arrived at our accomodation and were introduced to Steve who gave us a tour of the massive house.
    Following that, the kids were peckish and so were the adults, so we headed out to Mont Marie winery and restaurant.
    Mont Marie had a huge playground for the kids, a large drinks menu and mouth-watering menu. We ordered a couple of bottles of their Chardonnay to see us through the afternoon and spent the remainder of the day talking, sipping and enjoying our meals while watching Lenny play in the sandbox.
    Afterwards, we ducked into the grocery store to pick up some snacks before having a quiet snack at the house before going down.
