Tim Hogel and Irina Korneeva

Miami - USA

Tim and Irina arrived in South Africa from Miami on a Wednesday afternoon. A recurring eye injury plagued Tim on board the flight over to Cape Town and this resulted in him spending the first three days of being in Cape Town flat on his back in his apartment. Obviously both Tim and Irina were rearing to go when we started touring and our first day was in the Winelands.

With it being harvest season on the winelands Tim and Irina were able to taste grapes straight from the vine.

The juice from the grapes could also be sampled directly from the bottle in the wine tasting room (-:)

The Eland in the background feel left out as Tim and Irina video each other. (-:)

Irina says it time to take a break while Tim keeps the show rolling.
