Sun ☀️ to snow ❄️

Our last parkwalk. The guy with the clipboard did the countdown and off we plodded like the wooden tortoise at his feet. 



To make up for the unnecessary early morning exertion we managed to fit in a visit to Quayside Cabin. First time in daylight


Grilled Fish and chip and calamari


It's in the new harbour. It really is a cabin or a storage container that has been extended 


The toilet is in a small shed opposite


Over there 


We also think this was a first... walking along the harbour wall where we saw these guys


Babies mostly


Amazing views round the bay





Seals 


Later was a walk along the cliffpath to Uranus 🌎 


These Rocks look like a man lying on his back asleep


The woodies photobomb a wedding 👰🎩


See how many photos we can get in 


To the right is a rhino rock


I see no ships


Where's Woody?


Supper was at La Vierge for the best steak in the world ever. We had pre dinner drinks outside where you can also play boules 


Amazing beetroot salad


And practicing The Woodward Face


Brownie for dessert


A lovely sky on the day we flew back


There was some inexplicable traffic queueing on Sir Lowry's pass meaning we got to the security queue at the airport with 20 minutes to boarding. Thankfully one of the staff got us through security and passport control with another passenger in a wheelchair. Apparently it was a combination of 6 flights leaving at the same time and not enough airport staff

Relief!
We got home safely to this...


And this!


And this....


Love to all xxx

Already planning the next one...

The sun is shining in kent today so we are walking into maidstone along the river. Best way to avoid the traffic. However right now I am being sat upon by Foggy who has decided my lap is the best location to have a wash.
Here are a few snaps from our last few days in SA
One hot day we went out for a ride to nowhere


A long way to nowhere


We got to Grahamstown where we had lunch .sadly the pizza oven was not hot enough so we went for other options


We made friends with Tomas


Who let you know when it was time for a tidbit 


The view through the garden centre up towards the mountain


And even here with 30+* you can find an aga


We finished off with some rather marvellous carrot cake


We were surprised to see this plant here. A friend of Woody's gave it to us from their plant and we have also seen it at Nymans


We came a different route back stopping off at Klipdale where the old railway station is now a home


How to drink water with a helmet on


And a stop at this shop on the way back to buy locally decorated fair trade candles


Dinner round at Carols at no 1 Berg n See . A beautifully done table with enchiladas. She serves the cheese course before the dessert. People can be enjoying it whilst you finish the dessert... good idea


A walk on the cliff path found another furry friend


Like father like son


Amazing dramatic skies


And clouds


Lunch at the de Boers by the pool with their bougainvillea 


All gone!


Followed by a willow walk. Ever so obedient that one.


A view of the three reservoirs...used to be Hermanus water supply and still does the golf course we think


Willow woof


Birds on the water feeder


And as ever an incredible light on the mountains

Only one more to go and time to evict the cat xxx
