The tenth weekend

This last weekend we went to Hermanus, a beautiful little town 2 hours driving from Cape Town! We stayed in Andries’ mom’s  house, which is on walking distance from the beach. I went together with Steff, Julien (Steff’s boyfriend), Paulie and Andries. As soon as we arrived we went to the beach for a swim. Hermanus is so gorgeous, such a pretty place! After our swim we went out for dinner in a nice little restaurant, where Phi’s dad, Gus, joined us. Back in the house we chatted for a while, but then we went to bed; Steff and I slept in bunk beds. The next morning we went to the beach again and had a good cold swim. After that Steff and Julien showed me the other beaches. When we got back to the house,  we quickly packed our stuff, looked around the town centre, had an ice cream and a drink and left to see Jeff’s rugby match. Rugby is a really cool sport to watch, but I’d definitely not want to participate! However, Jeff’s team played really well, they won the match! In the afternoon we went back to Cape Town to go to Matt’s (Steff’s friend) get together. Here I got the opportunity to say good bye to everyone who I wouldn’t see anymore during the week.

On Sunday Elise took me to Kalk Bay.  It is essentially a fishing village. It has still a lively working harbour and one of the best place to buy fish straight off the boat. We looked  around and we visited lots of shops to buy souvenirs for my family and friends. There were so many cool ‘Africa shops’! We also went to a little cafe for a coffee and a piece of cake. Kalk Bay beautiful harbour where we took some pictures. It is almost impossible to take a bad picture here.
