SOETES EN
SOP
Breedekloof
23rd July 2011 |
|
 |
|
Twenty of us headed to the Breedekloof for
their annual Soetes en Sop Festival on 23rd
July. Brian opted out at the last minute due
to “the pressure of work” (Time Out
was to celebrate it’s 11th anniversary in 5 days
time and he hadn’t completed the
presentation yet!).
No, it had nothing to do with the Tri
Nations rugby—really! |
 |
 |
|
Our first stop was
OPSTAL
where they had a
farmers market! Next was
SLANGHOEK
for their
Biltong and Blue Cheese Soup. |
 |
|
After this we headed into Rawsonville to try
some new estates—GOUDINI
wines, where Chicken & Pea Soup was on
the program &
KIRABO
-
a new boutique wine estate. At both of these
estates their soup was finished when we
arrived, which
prompted me to write to the Tourism office.
I am still awaiting a final answer from
their Chief Tourism Officer. |

At
DASCHBOSCH
they served Vetkoek—perhaps by now
everyone was all "souped-out’
and most ladies bought one as a lunch snack!.

Sandy uses the time to do her gathering and
Ingrid shows off her tattoo. The weather didn’t
look that great on leaving the City, but seemed
to “play along” throughout the day. Or was it
the wine that made us less concerned? |
|
Generally speaking, though, a good day was
enjoyed by all.
Always good to get out into the country.
(Come rain or shine!) |
