Sunset Saturday XXVIII

Another beautiful sunset at the beach in Cape Town during my first visit there in July last year. It was quite windy and the sky had been full of clouds earlier, but in the evening it cleared and so we got a great view of the sunset.
Enjoy the weekend!

Sunset Saturday XIII

We took this picture last year on our way back to Cape Town from whale watching. The road was going high along the coast with amazing views towards the water and the bay and when the sun set we just had to pull over to watch the spectacular colors in the sky and on the water. Oohh, Cape Town...

Market Day

We spent all morning at the thriving neighbourgoods market in Woodstock.

It was recently featured in my favorite magazine and so I was very keen to check it out. And I'm happy to report it was exactly what I expected: Busy scene, beautiful setting, delicious food and lots of creativity.

It's so good to be back in a real city for a while! Luckily, we have a full week to get our proper dose of the mother city :)

Capetonian Views

Everyone told me how beautiful Capetown is but still I wasn't quite prepared for the outstanding beauty of this part of the world.
After a long and rainy day in the car we arrived at sunset from the Sir Lowry's Pass and for the first time I loved the traffic jam because that meant I could enjoy the fantastic view even longer :)



The next days we spent exploring the city and the surroundings, including a trip to the wine region around Stellenbosch with georgeous views from the vineyards and the spectacular backdrop of snow-capped mountains.


Table mountain even cleared its famous tablecloth when we went up there and so we got some absolutely amazing 360-degree views of the peninsula.


Driving around the peninsula is really hard as you get distracted by the natural beauty all the time and I had to pull over more than once because I just could not concentrat on the road for all the beautiful views around us.


More sunsets along the coast and dramatic skies left us deeply in love with this beautiful city and I am already planning to go back and see more.
