Western Cape, Jan/Feb 2016

We needed a couple of repairs done to our 'van which could be done in the Bush Lapa main factory in Paarl or at their new Johannesburg branch. As we've not been to the Western Cape for nearly 3 years (where does the time go??) we decided to book the 'van in at Paarl in the middle of January so that we were mostly travelling after the school holidays.

We took a week to drive down to Paarl, then spent 2 1/2 weeks in the winelands and cape peninsula, before returning to Richmond.
