Green Point Park

Today was a public holiday (Women's Day) and because the weather was positively stunning, the Mr and I decided to explore Green Point Park.


The park includes a biodiversity showcase garden of over 300 indigenous Cape plant species and as I recently realised, I love plants like foodies love recipes, so this outing was...well simply delicious :) Here are a few pics...







If you're looking for the park, drive to the Green Point light house and you'll find the park entrance across the road directly opposite the lighthouse. Entrance is free and if you're looking for more information about the park, visit the Biodiversity Blog.

Wind Walking {Blaauwberg Conservation Area}

A few weeks ago while driving from Big Bay to Melkbos, I noticed paths carved out between the thick fynbos of the roadside Blaauwberg Conservation area.


So this afternoon, my Mr and I went to check it out. It was a little bit windy but what beautiful place to take a walk.

Beach Bin {Milnerton Beach}


I'm going through some of photos from earlier this year. I found these snaps I took while walking on Milnerton beach.


It's so sad to see the rubbish that lies about, waiting to be pulled into the ocean and swallowed by the swells.

Winter Walk {Kirstenbosch Gardens}


My husband and I took a winter stroll through Kirstenbosch Gardens last month.  

Kirstenbosch is a beautiful 36 hectare indigenous garden on the slopes of Table Mountain in Cape Town. It's home to over 7 000 indigenous species and for anyone who loves gardening, it's a delightful way to spend an afternoon... even if it is a little chilly.
