Jacques, the youngest brother, just finished his studies in 2007, so a celebration at the "uitkyk punt" (view pint) on top of the mountain in Hermanus was in order with a French Champagne Andre, Inge-Marie's Dad, kept especially for this occasion. Andre (the other brother) also recently got engaged to Sandri... so celebrations all round!
We also caught-up with some friends, Janine and Justice from Klerksdorp who got married in Hermanus last year. Linsday, who worked with Ryan in Johannesburg. Nigel, Marina, Pierre and Junita also joined us for a lunch and drinks at Bingtang's Cave one afternoon.
Thanks, dear family for entertaining us so royally! We had a wonderful time tasting many superb wines (including a true French wine tasting) with wonderful food. We were spoilt rotten by the family taking us on beach braai's (bbq's), a river cruise, sundowners on the beach (always starting with a brilliant champagne or cap clasique), an amazing and very special Christmas and new year, dinners at fancy restaurants with brilliant views and always making us feel at home.
