With out a doubt Langebaan on the west coast was this years favourite with me. My son Wayne took me to Club Mykonos where he treated me in the Boesmanland Plaaskombuis with a most wonderful dinner. Martin, Less and Kie played music and sang for us. I bought 2 of their cd’s.

We also had a 10 course dinner at the Strandloper, the most unusual restaurant I have ever been to and a MUST for every one who visits the west coast.

I also took a drive to Parternoster and I could not believe the beauty and real peaceful atmosphere which I found there.

From there I travelled to Darling and paid a visit to Evita Bezuidenhouds Peron. People of my age especially will enjoy this, as it is from very early years when we still had steam trains and times where you could read signs like "Bagasie kamer" "Peron nommer 1 " "Ruskamer" etc.

I bought the most delicious wine from the Darling Cellars at most reasonable prices.

I plan to go back at the end of August to experience the Namaqualand Daisies as I believe because of the early rains this will be a bumper year for the daisies.
