The Spice Route


If you have been following my travel photography blog, then you might think that I am always doing neat things like today's post. In reality, Hubby and I rarely go out on a date. And when we do, we spend our money carefully and try to make it stretch.

In December of 2015, we were invited to speak at a Christian youth camp between Paarl and Stellenbosch. After my afternoon session and before Hubby's evening session, we had a 2-hour gap of free time. We decided to go for a drive and popped in at the Spice Route in Paarl for dinner.

We arrived when things were closing like the wine tasting, the craft beer tasting and the chocolate tasting, which draw lots of South Africans and tourists alike. We didn't mind, because we didn't have a lot of time. Besides, the views and our meal were a big enough treat for us! We shared a delicious pizza at La Grapperia. Hubby's beverage of choice was a craft beer by CBC and mine was a Fynbos Gin by Wilderer with Tonic, ice, a slice of cucumber and a garnish of fresh mint.

Check out all the neat photos and be sure to click on them to see them at their best! The last two pictures include some vibrant glass sculptures from Red Hot Glass, also showcased at Paarl's Spice Route. There really are lots of things to see and do here, but most of it in the daytime. Kids are also welcome.
