We visited some awesome wine estates during our st We visited some awesome wine estates during our stay in Cape Town >>>>
Slides 1-5: PIGCASSO - a wine estate & farm sanctuary, home of the former four-legged artist, Picasso, who is the only animal in history to have had art exhibits (and in multiple countries too!)
6-9: MURATIE - one of the oldest wine estates in the region, complete with centuries-old cobwebs decorating the uneven rooms, and fascinating stories about the previous owners. So much character here!
10-12: DELAIRE GRAFF - a beautiful wine estate with stunning views and awesome artwork and sculptures scattered throughout the interiors & grounds. It was under renovation when we visited, but we got to see a few of the art pieces. 
13-17: BABYLONSTOREN - a large wine estate with incredible grounds— eateries, shops, and gardens, in addition to the rolling hills of vineyards. Really lovely.

When a potential disaster turns into a dream…… When a potential disaster turns into a dream……. Things could’ve gone very differently for us, when we went to check in to our hotel in Cape Town, (that I had been so looking forward to), for our South African honeymoon, and the managers kindly inform us that the room I booked is not available for these two nights, because I in fact, booked it for these two nights in the year 2026! 😳🙈😭 
Instead of turning us onto the street, they so incredibly graciously & generously, extended their available *upgraded* room to us. 😮🙌🏼🤩 Takunda & Maggie — you are angels, and we thank you for turning my mistake into our Cape Town Miracle. ✨ 
You’ll never want to stay anywhere else in Cape Town. The accommodations, the decor, the amenities, the breakfast!, and mostly the staff… ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
@theglenhotel is wonderful.

And when I left the hotel, I thought I was colorfu And when I left the hotel, I thought I was colorful! 
Hello, Bo Kaap!! This spirited and vibrant neighborhood is in the heart of Cape Town, and has important cultural and historical significance. 
In the 17th & 18th centuries, The Dutch colonists brought enslaved people and political exiles from various parts of Africa and Southeast Asia to this area, and they were central to the formation of the Bo-Kaap community, which was originally a racially segregated neighborhood.
After emancipation of slavery here, the tradition of painting houses in bright, vibrant colors is believed to have begun as a visual expression of their newfound freedom and unique cultural identity. >>>

Drove down to Cape Point & the Cape of Good Hope. Drove down to Cape Point & the Cape of Good Hope. Absolutely stunning! Took a little hike from the old lighthouse to see the small lighthouse cottage, and views of the new lighthouse at the very tip. So beautiful! 
And I had no idea, but there are six floral kingdoms on earth. Check out the last photo, of a world map indicating the minute size of the Cape Floral Kingdom, which is a biodiversity hotspot, compared to the other five Floral Kingdoms. (It’s the hot pink one). Sooo cool!
