Yesterday was the drive to Hermanus - the day started out beautiful but the clouds rolled in to bring the winter rains. The seas were really rough (it looked like what I've heard Missi's day on the Darula to be!) and I'm glad we were out on the water Saturday instead.
This sign is posted at a robot (AKA a stoplight) along the main highway with how much water the city was using - and the reservoir status!
Not only are we sitting on a whale tail bench (as Hermanus is known to be one of the world's best sites for land-based whale watching), but in the back of this picture is Danger Point which is said to be the location of where the first time the "women and children first" rule was carried out. There are paintings and such of the ship's sinking documenting that tidbit of history. 
Our afternoon entertainment...
The picture below is of the top of one of the mountains on the drive back; just a couple of rocks to the casual glance, but it's known as the rhino and elephant team.
This is from a mountain overlooking Hermanus - slightly windy... Well, it's just the start of the work week and I'm already looking forward to next weekend - including the arrival of Jack and Emma!
