Highlights of a wonderful day in Hermanus and surrounds included ...
- A walk along the ocean front admiring the old harbour and stunning, rocky coast line.
- A delicious meal of grilled calamari and seared tuna.
- Revisiting the little stretch of coast where I scattered dad's ashes - a very emotional moment for me.
- Exploring the Hermanus wine route. It's fantastic! Lovely wine, very scenic and much less commercialised than the better know wine hot spots like Stellenbosch and Franschhoek.
- The drive from Hermanus to Caledon (which I'd never done before and reaching) and discovering the lovely Spookfontein; a beautiful farm in a sublime setting with delicious wine and port and a very friendly wine host who served us despite us arriving after closing time.
