Amazing Spice Route - Tasting craft beer at Spice Route while the kids were busy with ice creams and chocolates. This place has it all and its very easy to spend your hard earned day. The place is full of vibe and to top it up we had scrumptious braai at the open fire. Really enjoyed my day out with family.
