Atlanta - Part 4


I'm ending off my Atlanta series with the fabulous Ponce City Market. The market offers a fun dining experience in a hip, industrial setting with several options to choose from. And, there are plenty of gorgeous shops to either spend money on yourself or a gift for someone special.

We visited the place last summer with my step-dad and brother. While there, we did some gift shopping and ate lunch at the Biltong Bar. It was neat to share some flavorful South African food with them. Come back next week to see photos of what South Africa (mainly the Western Cape region) has to offer!

Atlanta - Part 3



Last summer, my husband and brother went to watch the Toronto Blue Jays vs. the Atlanta Braves at SunTrust Park. My mom works for Cisco, the IT company that has made the baseball stadium the most advanced in North America. Here are a few photos from the outside and you can learn more about Cisco's state-of-the-art project here.

Atlanta - Part 1


My husband and I had a blast in Atlanta with my mom, step-dad, and brother. We were there in the summer, but now we're back in South Africa. I'll be finishing my series of our trip to the States with Atlanta. These photos are of the airport, downtown, and some homes. If you look closely at the second downtown pic, you'll even see a rainbow!

A Day in Cape Town - Part 1

A Day in Cape Town - Part 1

St. George's Mall on
St. George's Street


Samantha planned a family outing to Cape Town before her 16th birthday. The day we left, she was helping her dad paint her bedroom, so her day was very full. I went with an inflamed ligament in my foot, but all the walking that we did was close by in the city center.

Samantha and Jessica bought matching dresses at the market on St. George's Mall. We also saw a live African performance of female dancers and singers.

Trust me, it's worth it!



Greenmarket Square on
Longmarket Street

At Greenmarket Square we checked out the stalls and African curious for sale. It's a historical square built in 1696 and declared a national monument in 1961. The distinctive cobblestones were laid in 1965 and there are interesting buildings surrounding the square from different eras.





Central Methodist Mission
on Longmarket Street

We were interested to see inside the Central Methodist Mission when we saw a sign inviting us in for coffee and croissants. Amanda had a hot chocolate, Samantha and I had cappuccinos, and Jessica and Robbie had regular coffees. We were really impressed with the croissants and carrot cake. I tasted both and they were top notch!









St. George's Cathedral
on Wale Street

From Longmarket Street we walked to Wale Street and had a peek inside St. George's Cathedral. My kids haven't been to Europe where there are plenty of beautiful churches, so seeing two in one day was neat. It was dark inside, so my photos didn't turn out that nicely, but they still give a good idea of what we saw.






Check back next Tuesday
for Part 2 with photos of
the Dutch East India
Company's Gardens
begun in 1652!
