Our friends Anne and David stayed for a few days before flying home to the UK and took us for a lovely lunch at D’Aria wine farm in Durbanville. We played a game of boules afterwards…the girls won of course!
We were also lucky enough to see one of my favourite things…a chameleon in a lavender bush around the boules court.
The weather has been so nice we have had a few beach days .................
....and a lovely walk from Kalk Bay to Muizenberg. The walk path is in between the railway line and the beach and they are all very close together so you often get soaked by the waves along the way.
The area is very Victorian with huge old houses and very nice antique shops, retro clothing and cute cafes.
This area is often visited by sharks so there are shark spotters along the way…….it ‘s holiday season though so they weren’t there! Malc tried his hand but couldn’t see anything. The black flag was flying which means “the water conditions are murky and we can’t tell if there is a shark or not”………..really useful!
The shark sign also said they had seen a shark on the 7th December 2010 – very encouraging especially as when we were last here in February an elderly lady had been eaten by a shark whilst swimming and they only recovered her swim hat!
