We woke to much cooler weather today and had a little late lie in before getting up and setting up to do a bit of exploring. Breakfast at Whe was lovely. There weren’t many other people there as it is more of a lunch and dinner venue with fresh oysters being their specialty. Well actually if you want to enjoy fresh oysters you’re spoiled for choice in Knysna!

The Earl had an omelette with three fillings for R40 and I had Eggs Benedict with spinach for R63 – not bad and both were very good.

Were they saving water on washing up by serving the food on papered boards?

I rather liked the barrels being turned into mirrors

After breakfast we walked on the wharf and found some local lady fishermen. What a good way to ensure the family are fed on healthy fare.

We then took a drive over Phantom Pass which was rather lovely. We spotted some birds including the Knysna Turaco but weren’t able to get the photo!

The Earl took the photos of the Second Fishing Day. Our Western Province Juniors and Seniors did very well



Garth and Pam had us over for a braai again this evening. It was great socialising with good friends.

Yummy that beautiful fresh fish is going to be good. I think those are Red Roman. They are super fish to eat. Stay well see the weather is going to get cold there soon.
