OUR SOUTH AFRICAN ROAD TRIP - The Knysna Oyster Festival

 Back to Knysna for the 2014 Oyster Festival! We found a great pub on Thesen Island where music of "our generation" was playing. Fish  & chips, lobsters, oysters, prawns and more, were coming out thick and fast! The perfect spot to enjoy a winter afternoon by the sea!  Have you ever heard of an "oyster delivery" van, before? I hadn't, but I sure would like to have one where I live!




 We went for a walk around Thesen Island. We saw an old turbine station turned into a five star boutique hotel. Complete with a deck named after  Mr. O.! THey also had some lovely artwork int heir foyer.



 Golfing at Simola, Knysna. It was a  freezing, but beautiful day!
The views were stunning!




 And lastly, before we left… we bought a gift at the local craft market, for Beanie and the family to remember us by. This is a sculpture of two Gannet birds made out of a local stone. Beanie loves birds and we thought they were just perfect! Thank you, dear Beanie, Cliff, Max and Buddy for sharing your beautiful home with us! We look forward to you all coming to stay with us in Australia, one day!
