Botanic gardens
Well, there's not much to say about this. It's stunning and a huge area which longs for exploration, but as long as your no botanic or scientiest, you might just wanna enjoy...

Hey guys, sorry for the delay but I've been quite busy the last few days. As you might already know, South Africa is well known for its different wines - especially Sauvignon Blanc and other white wines. There' are plenty of beautiful wine yards close by, which literally invites you to come. As such, Liz, Gwen and I decided to go out to the "Constantia" valley to experience wines of Klein Constantia with a history of winemaking that goes back to the 17th century. Really impressive. We took a huge platter with cheese, jam, some meat, brownies and veggie stuff on it plus some sparkling water to at least make the impression of being "okay" after drinking all that full-bodied wine. No, just kidding! ;-p As far as I can remember, I chose to take 3 white ones, 1 rosé and 1 red wine to have a bit of everthing. The "Husseys Vlei" (white wine) and "Christine" (white wine) we're my favourites so far. I can really recommend to do wine tastings when you're around here cause it IS an experience and, moreover, affordable. The "Chenin blanc" is delicious too. I'll definitely come back before I'll going back to Germany.
