Stellenbosch

Last weekend Ambereen and I drove to Stellenbosch to meet our friends Joe and Shareen for lunch.

The day was clear so we were able to see the sights we missed on our earlier drive to Franschoek. We took the N2 over Sir Lowry's Pass

and had breakfast at a small winery called The Orchard. Once again, we each had a full breakfast with coffee for less than $10 US. Theewaterskloofdam was a beautiful lake on the way over the next pass:

I read about Delaire Graff winery in my guide book and they said it had one of the best views from any vineyard in the country.

I've never been to Napa Valley, but I find it hard to believe that it compares to what I've seen in South Africa. I've been converted!
