Cape Town (16-30 December 2022)

Hubby and I never tire of visiting the beautiful city of Cape Town. We have travelled here many a times either for work or leisure. In April 2018, I travelled with my brother and cousin, and saw and experienced Cape Town through their eyes. This was a memorable trip. We stayed at the newly revamped Protea Hotel by Marriott Cape Town Waterfront Breakwater Lodge.

Then hubby and I decided to do a road trip again in 2022 (our second road trip), but with a friend. We were fortunate in that he was going to drive us all the way there. We were going to do a 1 night stopover in Colesberg, then a 9 night stay in Cape Town, and finally a 2 night stay in Riebeeck Kasteel. The hubby and I always travel together, and there was some apprehensions about travelling with a friend. But as you will read on, the trip proved to be most memorable.

Seychelles (16-23 January 2012)

Seychelles is a perfect tropical island holiday. And it is not only for romantics.

Mauritius (January 2005)

Mauritius is only a four hour flight from Johannesburg, and as soon as you arrive at the airport, you can already smell the ocean air. We flew with Air Mauritius.

Victoria Falls (January 2001)

We still had places to visit in Africa and chose Victoria Falls as our next destination. We chose to stay at the Zambezi Sun, this was when it had newly opened. We flew with British Airways.

Zanzibar (January 2000)

As well as being known for its beautifully pristine beaches, Zanzibar is also steeped in history. We chose our accommodation in Stone Town, the historical centre of Zanzibar. This holiday did not pan out as we thought it would.

Egypt (December 1999)

Our first trip overseas was way back in 1999. Egypt was our first destination. I remember hubby telling me that we should go to Egypt. As always, ones first trip is filled with a lot of anxiety and excitement. Part of the excitement is planning for the trip, and then the day finally arrives when you have to set off on your journey.  We went with Rennies travel agency.
