{South Africa Day Seven}

Two days in a row! Look at me! hehehe

So, back to the South Africa posts... Our seventh day in South Arica was a fun one! We started our morning with coffee from Deluxe Coffeeworks. If you're into good coffee (we're Portlanders, so you know we are...) then you must stop here if you're ever in Franschhoek. We strolled the adorable downtown (which is basically just one long street) and then headed out for a day of wine tasting. We visited La Motte, Tokara (this one ended up being our favorite), Thelema and La Petite Ferme. There are obviously so many wineries to visit and there were many on our list that we missed, but we loved all the places we went - great wine and amazing views. Couldn't complain!

{Birthday Weekend in San Sebastian}

First off, hello! Long time no... blog? This weekend, a good friend of mine asked me if I stopped blogging. I took a quick glance at my blog and realized why. No updates in 20 days, and spam comments running rampant on all my recent posts. Oy vey! The good news is, no, I haven't stopped blogging - not intentionally anyways. Life has just been really nuts these days (although it feels like this is just status quo now...) with work and visitors and weekends away. I've been too busy living life to blog about life, which I guess is a good thing! But the truth is, I really and truly miss blogging and I hope to get back to posting more regularly soon...

I have so many posts to catch up on, but for now I just wanted to share some iphone snaps from our awesome time in San Sebastian this past weekend. We were there for my birthday and it was so incredibly special, fun and delicious (because we stuffed ourselves silly with pinxtos and rioja!). 

P.S. For those of you who've asked about what iPhone apps I use to edit my photos - I primarily use Camera+ and Instagram, but for the photos below I used a new-to-me app that is quickly become my favorite called PicTapGo. I highly recommend it! Hope this is helpful :)
