Silvermine and Noordhoek...

Just twelve hours after Candace landed we drove to Silvermine where we had a lovely morning relaxing by the dam. (27th February 2014.) We also had a picnic lunch. Silvermine is one of our favourite spots to enjoy the peace, quiet, and beautiful scenery.

From there we went to Noordhoek and visited Cape Point Vineyards, for their weekly Food Market. There were many different food items and it was quite a difficult decision choosing our supper, but we ended up having a lovely meal together. We also sat on the beautiful lawn and watched the sunset with our new friends Riaan and Shea. It was a wonderful way to end the day!

Breathtaking!
I love a good sunset! :-)

A perfect end to our first full day back in Cape Town!
