TIMEOUT - Previous Outings
Thursday 29th September 2011
Kommetjie & Truffles
Our day to Kommetjie
started off in overcast
conditions. By the
time we reached Long
Beach it was cool but
the pier overlooking the
beach was a meeting
place for the ladies.
Many people were very
sombre about the sea and
the dreadful shark
attack that had taken
place the day before.
Gazing at the sea after
such a tragedy makes one
really think - "How
small man is - and how
powerful the sea
creatures are!"
A few of us took off on
a walk and Erika came
back with two awesome
finds for her home!
A 'blommie' and a piece
of driftwood.
Next stop was the Imhoff
Farm in Kommetjie.
Everyone poured into the
deli and the other
shops.
Unfortunately, because
we were there before
12h00 the camel rides
were not available.
Sorry Hilda!
The Blue Water Cafe
overlooks a small lake -
unfortunately, we were
told our group was too
big for this restaurant.
Another restaurant in
the Imhoff area is the
Pickled Fish. With
a menu of predominately
fish it is somewhat
limited with choice for
non fish-eaters and we
decided on Cafe Roux in
Noordhoek.
Compass Bakery (The
factory outlet for
Woolworths) had everyone
dashing in, by now a
light drizzle.
Tuesdays and Thursdays
pensioners get a 10%
discount and this made
everyone extremely
happy!
The Noordhoek Farm
Village was our next
stop, with Cafe Roux
being our destination.
Very special friendships
are being formed within
the club and this happy
group is testament to
this!
Belinda displayed and
sold her delicious
truffles - coffee;
ginger; peanut butter;
amarula - WOW what
flavours!
Mary Honeybun came to
visit us as she lives
very close to the
Noordhoek Village. What
a treat it was for
everyone to catch up
with her.
This Protea bush near
the car park had
everyone taking out
their cameras.
Here Mary is saying
'good-bye' to all her
friends, and will
shortly go home, to once
again, sort out her pet
project - the collection
of bread tags. She
is doing amazing work -
recycling the bread tags
and the money she
receives from the sale
goes to purchasing wheel
chairs. Well done
Mary, we are all SO
proud of you!
