Weekly Winners : Birthdays and more …
Gosh .. it’s been a busy weekend and only now have the chance to put these up … !!!! (Monday)


Soothing sounds of a harp wafted around the foyer of the hotel ….
… Victoria and Alfred Waterfront – named after Queen Victoria and her second son, Prince Alfred who started construction of the harbour in 1860 …
.. and forms part of … the tourist/shops/foodies part of the harbour … with beautiful Table Mountain as it’s backdrop …

.. and where the statues of Nobel Peace Prize Winners … from left to right … Chief Albert Luthuli, Archbishop Desmond Tutu, Mr F.W. de Klerk, and Mr Nelson Mandela …. stand proud ..


.. as the sun sets, the sunset cruises return to port …

Whilst hubby was at the conference, I spent some family time in Somerset West ….

Hubby joined us for a superb meal at ‘Daniella’s restaurant’ (she is one of the manager’s there) …. 96 Winery Road, in Stellenbosch .. Kathy, Ian, Daniella, me and hubby

OH those tapas look yummy!
You saved the best for last!!! Loved this post, some of the photos of the Table Mountain almost looked like paintings with that dramatic cloudy sky. I'm glad you had a good time and got to spend some time with Mom.
