Viewing Franschhoek from the Road


We had a fabulous family reunion in Franschhoek (Afrikaans for "French Corner") this past weekend. All the family on my mother-in-law's side gathered to celebrate two big birthdays. My husband's aunt turned 70 last Thursday and Hubby turned 50 last Friday.

Today's photos were taken from the car while Hubby drove into Franschhoek early Friday evening and as we left late Sunday morning. Since we spent a weekend there, I'll be sharing more photos of interesting places in this wonderful wine valley that's also renowned for its great restaurants.

As you can see by the photos, it's Autumn in the Southern Hemisphere.

Lovely photos I can't get over that it's Autumn and a blue sky wished London was like that we can't even get a blue sky in summer either LOL :-)

I read on someone's blog that in Ireland you know it's summer because the rain is warmer! LOL :D

Thanks, Sarah! You didn't leave a link, so I had to super sleuth. I found your Google+ account, which helped me to find the rest. I'm now following you on Google+ and Twitter. Have a great weekend!

Thanks, Sharon! Your photo of the iguana hidden amongst the leaves would make a difficult puzzle and you're so funny to think of it! The heron looks so cool. Have a great weekend!

Thanks, Ruth! Those Joshua trees are really interesting and I've always been fascinated by boulders and you captured them well.
