Vergelegen Wine Farm - Somerset West







Excerpt from website:

Since 1685 and to this day, the Estate has been crafted by some of the world's great explorers and visionaries, who each in their own way have helped shape Vergelegen to what it is today: a world-class Estate.
With its world renowned handcrafted wines, 310 year old history and heritage,exquisite gardens and refined cuisine, it comes as no surprise that Vergelegen continues to be the choice of the discerning visitor, seeking a total sensory experience. For this reason, the Estate has borne witness to many visits of heads of state and celebrities from all over the world.
Think of Vergelegen to spend quality time on your own, with your family and friends or business associates. The wine tasting centre and cellar tour, but also theVergelegen Restaurant, the Rose Terrace Bistro and the magical Camphor ForestPicnic are only a few of a myriad of enjoyable activities at Vergelegen.
We invite you to experience the world of Vergelegen first-hand.
The oldest oak tree in South Africa, the ancient White Mulberry tree and of course the five camphor trees gracing the front of the Homestead all bear testimony to his great horticultural talent.

This place was an unbelieveably enjoyable experience.

Filled with Rose gardens and giant camphor trees as well as forest to have a delectable multi - course picnic - you never want to leave! 

The wine tasting was a bit of a let down for me personally.

I am more of a red wine fan, but I enjoyed the Chardonney Reserve the most. The Merlot was too watery for my liking, but I still recommend a visit to see the rest of what Vergelegen has to offer.

I warn you though - put aside at least 3 or 4 hours to fully appreciate the beauty and tranquility of the gardens as well as the majesty of the house and extensive book collection in the library.

And you have to try the picnic in the woods, pricey at R150 a head, but well worth it!

The Cape holiday in pictures


Cape Town Fish Market at The Waterfront have these delicious Tempura Salmon California rolls - I have never tasted anything as delicious!


Spending some time on Clifton Beach acting like a bunch of children!



Our view on the ride up to Table Mountain as well as the picnic in the woods and the pretty rose garden at a beautiful wine farm called Vergeleden*


We visited the Protea Fire & Ice for their delicious milkshakes, but I had a delicious Lamb and mushroom burger and a champagne cocktail and was too full to try the milkshake - I had a sip of Tee's Lindt chocolate milkshake and it was yummy.

My Blog is 1!!

Today - 1 year ago I ventured out into the big bad world of anonymous blogging!

I love that I can speak my mind without having people I know misinterpreting what I have said.

I love that I can fully admit to being a raging nymphomaniac and not having people judge me.

I never imagined that I would meet such unbelievable people out there. I never imagined that I would end up speaking about my life in general - this was supposed to be an outlet for my fantasies and forbidden thoughts - in the end it has turned out to be a bit of both.

This year has seen me through a relationship with QT and a sexy flirtation with MC and a little affair with MBA.

I hope the next year brings me:

Lots of action  - I am feeling the strain of not getting any for a few weeks now and I am ready to burst. For me, sex really is an addiction. I crave that physical chemistry that only a fellow human can share with you - a vibrator - no matter how pretty pink and sparkly it is - can only do so much - which is just not enough!
There is definitely something special about sex with a person you love - the bond is so special and really strong. But every now and then some Hot, Nasty, Animal Sex is all I need!

Career settlement - After this crazy year or hanging in there and fighting for what I want, I hope that next year I can reap the benefits. I don't want to lose a relationship over my career again. I want to be happy and settled and doing what I truly have a passion for, and something I am good at.

Financial stability - this is a worry of mine for a while now, and I am hoping that if all continues as well as it has, that I will reach my goal.

A stunning overseas holiday - it has been a few years since I went overseas and I am dreaming of white sand, crystal clear seas and some beautiful architecture thrown in. So perhaps Thailand and somewhere else  -another visit to Italy?

Meeting my soulmate - I am 31. I need to start settling down sometime. Meeting my soulmate and experiencing the newness of a relationship that has a future is something I look forward to. Marriage in the future and then maybe children sometime further into the future. (but not before some exciting action!)

And I never want to repeat another year like this ever again!

So cheers to all of you that have visited, commented and stayed. 


Thank you for the thoughts and comments and love and support - I look forward to another fun year of blogging.
