I'm on my way back to Joburg after an amazing 3 weeks in Cape Town. I haven't made it too far, though - I got caught up in the wine area around Franschoek, which is where a lot of the early French Huguenots in South Africa settled. The valley there is beautiful, and it was my first visit. But it too had been, in part, ravaged by fire recently. I went to one - and only one - wine farm, tasted five of their wines and bought a bottle.
The town itself is pretty ... this woman was selling common utensils (garden spades, screwdrivers) enameled with flamboyant wallpaper like patterns. I bought one ... and asked for the photo to go with it.
