Hermanus is on the coast to the east of Cape Town (maybe twenty miles) on the next bay that is formed by the Cape on the west. We are staying in Franschoek and to get to Hermanus the drive is through a steep mountain pass over to the coast. The same mountains that are behind Franschoek. Hermanus is where the whales are watched (in season) not in season it's a completely crowdes seaside resort that combines elements of Saucelito and a shopping mall. The drive over is through dry grassy lands that are the home of thousands of sheep and an occaisional winery. Very b eautiful in parts but very crowded with truck traffic. We decided not to stop in Hermenus after a quick car tour and headed off to another road over a mountain pass that led to one of the highlights of our trip-Moog's Country Kitchen. Operated by a mother and daughter on their family farm. The lunch was was the best off the trip. See pics
