So I arrived at Stellenbosch fairly late at night but that wasn't really a problem especially as in the morning I had the wine tasting tour to look forward to : D I have to say it was alot of fun. I had a good group of people on the tour and there was 8 of us in total. We set off at 10.30am and had a celler tour at the first Vineyard or wine farm as they like to call them.

Ok, after a really long journey to Knysna ie a whole days journey just to Port Elizabeth, I finally made it to Knysna which is on the garden route. Due to my lack of time I've had to miss out on the Wild Coast which is a shame because I had heard some great things about Coffee Bay.

The afternoon was pretty chilled out, the hostel gave us a complementary drive arou...
