SA Road Trip: Hermanus and Cape Town

The next stop on our SA road trip was the Western Cape.  Our time was spread between Cape Town, still one of our favourite cities in the world, and Hermanus.  

It was great catching up with friends and family, but as usual we just didn't have enough time to see everybody and could easily have spent another 2 weeks here.  

Some of the highlights of our time here included:
- a trip up Table Mountain for Bronwen's birthday - free for South African citizens on their birthday :)
- picnic in Kirstenbosch.  Perhaps we are biased, but there does not seem to be another botanic garden anywhere in the world that competes with the beauty of these gardens.
- meeting Isla and Nathan.  Our nephew and niece were born in the time since our last visit, and meeting them was extremely special.
- exploring the beautiful surroundings of Hermanus, and especially the nearby Hemel-en-Aarde valley.
