Welcome!

I am going to be blogging my trip. This is a trip to celebrate my 50 years on this planet. I will try to post every day with pictures as we go.

Did you know?

Today's blog is brought to you courtesy of Rustenburg sauvignon blanc 2010...did you know...

South African toilet paper has a puppy imprinted on it
A sundowners is a drink with nibbles at about 4 in the afternoon
A smiley is a cooked sheep's head
A walkie talkie is the feet and neck of a chicken
A whale breaching is when the whale comes out of the water backwards ( btw we saw whales today)
Cape of good hope is not where the oceans meet, that is about 200km away
Pinotage is a hybrid of the pinot and hermitage grape
And I have forgotten the rest...they were much funnier at about 4 when we were having our sundowners.

We are now at a beautiful guest house on the ocean at Hermannus. Tomorrow we continue up the garden route towards Plettenburg bay.

More tomorrow.

  1. The whales came early for you!!! The dolphins must have told them that there were Canadians at Hermanus :)
