We all checked into "Di's Apartment" on the Hermanus seafront and Paulet, Gavin and Clarissa joined us there. Oh, the joy of breeching whales in the bay. Dinner at the new Heritage House Restaurant with family and friends followed. On Sunday we drove to the Elgin Wine area and had a wonderful lunch at South Hills. Hats off to them for coping with our group of 24. Monday was Gavin's birthday, so we had lunch at another Hermanus favourite, Bientangs Cave. Neil and Gav still managed a range of cocktails at Coco's before we all poured ourselves into a taxi to go to a braai at Marjo and Di's. Did we really end the evening on rounds of Russian vodkas? Gavin said it was the best birthday he's had for years!
We drove to Stellenbosch on the coast road, stopping to see the penguins in Betties Bay. We had a spot of lunch at Ernie Else Estate which was rather disappointing. Sadly, we didn't have too much time in Stellenbosch and missed lots of good wine tasting. Fred and Terri will have to put the Winelands on their list of things to do next time they visit the Cape.
