Two sides of the same city

Below are some photos from the two vineyards Ari and I visited for wine tastings on Thursday. At both locations, we were given a tour by the managing director (aka the head winemaker) around the grounds  and then he guided us through our tastings.




On Friday, Ari and I went on a half-day township tour, which included a guided walking tour in Langa, the oldest township in Cape Town. We also visited a creche (daycare/preschool center) where the kids sang and danced for us. The last photo is a great shot of the schizophrenic nature of South Africa's landscape: on left side of the street are homemade shacks and on the right side are middle and upper class homes. This is exemplary of the gigantic class divide in the country. 





This weekend has been filled with mostly food (nom nom!). Pictures will be posted soon.
