An Exploring South African

Curiosity, travel, and discovering new places. Craig Lotter's An Exploring South African is primarily a South African travel blog of things to do in and around Cape Town, the Helderberg, and the Cape Winelands.

With no cakes having to go out the door for @thehelderbergcakecompany on Sunday, Chantelle, the girls, and I enjoyed a lazy afternoon of nibbling on pizza, sipping coffee, and rolling on the grass lawn at Bluebird Cafe, situated next to the old Mountain Breeze farm stall on the R44 between Stellenbosch and Somerset West. #pizza #sundaylunch #familytime #bluebirdcafe #mountainbreeze #r44 #stellenbosch #southafrica #anexploringsouthafrican

Stellenbosch Flying Club wasn't allowing non members to join them for brunch, so instead, we hopped across the road for a wonderfully relaxed meal at Bluebird Cafe, a relatively new venture next to the old Mountain Breeze farm stall. #lunch #bluebirdcafe #mountainbreeze #r44 #stellenbosch #southafrica #anexploringsouthafrican

You don't have to walk down this path at the Steenbras Water Treatment Plant lookout point, but I was curious enough to do it. #lookoutpoint #steenbraslookoutpoint #helderbergmountain #mountain #gordonsbay #helderberg #southafrica #anexploringsouthafrican

Looking out across Gordon's Bay. The sky was a little hazy today, so not great for photos unfortunately. #lookoutpoint #steenbraslookoutpoint #helderbergmountain #mountain #gordonsbay #helderberg #southafrica #anexploringsouthafrican

Looking up towards the Steenbras Water Treatment Plant on the upper slopes of the Helderberg mountain. #lookoutpoint #steenbraslookoutpoint #helderbergmountain #mountain #gordonsbay #helderberg #southafrica #anexploringsouthafrican

There's a dog at the top of those stairs watching a very heavy man huff and puff his way up some rather steep steps. #lookoutpoint #steenbraslookoutpoint #helderbergmountain #mountain #gordonsbay #helderberg #southafrica #anexploringsouthafrican
