Durbanville farmlands

posted by Kerry-Anne
We took a drive out along the Malanshoogte Road from Durbanville late this afternoon, and stopped every so often along the way to take photos. The farms surrounding Durbanville are home to a fair number of sheep and cows, and even a few ostriches; and the lands are filled primarily with wheat and vines. It's an astonishingly rural area, given that it's just a few minutes away from the centre of the town.

A scene like this could come from one of many countries...its has a lovely rural feel to it and I like the way you've captured the winding track up to the property..

Jean, thanks so much for stopping by and leaving us a message; and thanks for linking to us on your website. :) We wish you heaps of success in your business - I think it's awesome that you're taking a little of the goodness of the Cape out into the rest of the world.

JM, thanks for stopping by and commenting. :)

Beverley, you're so right; I said to Paul as we were driving along that sections of these farmlands reminded me of Brittany, which we visited in 2006.
