CapeTown Day 2, 3 & good byes...

As if day 1 wasn't amazing enough we still have 3 more days in Cape Town. Everyone warned me I would not want to go back and I'm starting to believe them.

Day 2!
After waking up to this...  <3



We took a 45 min drive to the south-most point in continental Africa, which is Cape Point.
It was a windy day but beautiful views everywhere. What was also really exciting was to find a large group of south americans touring the site. It was definitely nice to listen to my mother language.




We spend our entire day visiting all these beautiful natural places that sorround Cape Town. It will make you think you died and went to heaven :)


Later that night we went to this small restaurant in the city called The Bombay Bicycle Club. The decoration and the mood was incredible. You would have to see it to understand because I can't put it in words. That place is so much fun!  Here is a picture of how our night started. ;)


Fun times with the crew!!!!!



Day 3!
Early in the morning we checked out, but before we headed out we had to take a final picture of the view from the Ambassador Hotel in Camp Bay.


We went to the Old Buiscuit Mill, which is the most amazing farmers' market I've been to so far.  The food, arts & crafts were amazing. It is very refreshing to get organic food and natural wood smell early in the morning.

 After the market, we drove to Franschhoek, the wine country 45 min away from Cape Town, where we would stay for our third and last night.



The gardens and small town down there are so pretty but the best part was the amazing wines we got to taste. We had to buy a couple of bottles after experiencing those unique flavors ;) haha


Later that night we headed to our hotel, which is absolutely beautiful. It is by far the coziest one we have stayed in. Here is a picture of how we spent our night. :)






Last day...

Our plane leaves early in the afternoon. But we wouldn't leave before making a last stop to admire the scenery in Franschhoek, so we spent our last day in this (very dutch) house that dated back to 1800. Perfect way to finish a trip, relaxing, and drinking a glass of wine.


I can't say we were ready to go back to Durban, but we have a busy work week ahead. Yes... we do also work around here ;)
