Day 3: Sunday 24th March - Homeward bound |
|
This 150 year old tree is magnificent - and
very worthy of a photo! |
|

The accommodation at Blue Gum is indeed very
comfortable. Two lounges are at
visitors disposal and a super place to meet
for a chat. |

Our coach driver Chris, seems very happy with
his breakfast of fried bananas, French toast and
bacon - he needs to keep his strength up with
our group of travelers! There had been a wedding
the night before at Blue Gum Country Estate and
unique heart decor was still hanging in the
breakfast room. Of course, everyone was
guessing who the bridal couple was - however,
none of us got it right! |

On our way home through Hermanus
we went up Rotary Way - what a stunning
view of Hermanus and its surrounds - and
the general consensus was that even
seasoned Capetonians had never been up
to this point! |
|

|
|
Dawn seemed anxious to invite Marie to
see the unique portable loo she
discovered. Marie had meantime
discovered these beautiful proteas which
rode back with us to the city! |
|
 |
|
The Mofam
River lodge outside Elgin
was our stopover for lunch! It is
in a stunning setting and worthy of the
few extra kilometres needed to travel
here. |

Mel tried to persuade the young ski
instructor to come back to Cape Town
with us - but he said he had duties to
perform and politely declined!
What a lovely place to stop en route
back to the city. |
|
|
A great extended week end was had by all;
The accommodation was great;
The food and companionship were great, but
the Earth Hour celebrations in Stanford proved
to be a bit of a damp squib!
Perhaps the organisers didn't get the support
they expected? |
