Drinking beer In the wine region
After only one night in Stellenbosch we moved to Franschhoek.
Franschhoek is apparently known for its excellent wine and restaurants and was first settled by the French Huguenots (hence the name French town). It retains the French feeling and is very pretty - the main street is lined with restaurants and cafes backed by vineyards and …
From Cape of Good Hope to land of good wine
... with fantastic results.
With our bellies full of a larger than intended lunch, we started the drive north-east to our next destination, the small town of Franschoek in the heart of the winelands.

... heartbreaking, harrowing song in Xhosa as they walked.
The township we were in was pretty incredible. It had a very different feeling than Kayamandi (where I teach). Kayamandi always feels very hectic and chaotic and busy.
