Spring really smiled brightly and presented us with a glorious day on Saturday. After breakfast we bade farewell to Barbara and Andrew and packed an overnight bag and made our way to Riverine on the Breede River to visit my sister and brother-in-law who were spending the weekend at their holiday house there.
We arrived at lunchtime and after taking sitting on the jetty and taking in the amazing view of the river we sat on the patio and enjoyed Tana’s delicious chicken salad.

After lunch we took a drive to Cape Infanta.
Relaxing together

The Southern Right Whale blowing a V shape
His fin
More of him
Perfect day for fishing
Lovely place to walk along the sand
Little Egret in the shallows
Earl found this rock kestrel
We passed a farm that had emus!
And a rhebok
A Denham’s Bustard was a highlight
So after this lovely day we returned and Tana cooked us a delicious lamb curry and after chatting we went to bed after 10. We had a late lie in on Sunday before enjoying Brian’s breakfast and then took a long walk around Riverine. Then it was back to Struisbaai!
Thanks Tana and Brian for a stunning weekend.
