Cape Holiday

Just a few images of  a beautiful area about 60km out of Capetown called Francshoek, The mountains are just awesome! The Cape cultivates some of the worlds best wines so if you like wine tasting this is where you need to go ;)
We took a lovely drive over the 13 km winding road through the mountains.





Fields of lavender

I'd love to be sitting right smack dab in the middle of that lavender field.

We were there two and a bit months ago and saw the flowers in the Eastern Cape for the first time. South Africa is so very beautiful.
My beads arrived before Christmas and I gave them to John to wrap as my Christmas present. I was really joyful when I opened the packets. As you know I love your work and two of the beads were unexpected. I am so very pleased and thankful. Thanks for sharing your gifts with us all.
I hope your class in SA will also show off the country. It's wonderful that you can do all this.
Yours,
Nancy Blignaut

That is wonderful Nancy, I am glad the beads arrived before Christmas.
two of the ladies coming to the class are ex South Africans, so they are really looking forward to being here:)
I hope the others will add a few days to travel and experience this beautiful country.
