28 January Constantia

On a beautiful Sunday morning our friend Shirley took us to two of her favourite vineyards which are very close to Hout Bay in an area called Constantia. We met Shirley and husband Taffy of The Road many years ago in the Caribbean. The Road, with boat parrot, Rubbish, has returned to her home port of Hout Bay after her circumnavigation, but very sadly, Taffy passed away last year.
Shirley drove us first to the oldest vineyard in South Africa to see the grounds and house museum and then we moved on to Constantia Glen for lunch on the terrace. I could easily get used to this life.

After lunch we took a ride over to Simons Town to see the marina and came back along the scenic Chapman's Peak road which has great views of Hout Bay. Today in perfect conditions.
