Mr. & Mrs. Vandebilt + kids

Charlie might be part fish. This child loves to swim in all manners. He has been looking forward to going to the water park since we gave him his water park ticket at Christmas time. Unfortunately, on many levels, there is a rather serious drought happening in Cape Town which quickly kills the water park dream. Fortunately there is not a drought in Knysna and they have adventure land.

Not shockingly water parks are not really my thing – this is why I hang out with fun moms like Jackie 😉 – but Charlie had the time of his life. The only reason we were able to get him to leave is he was no longer able to form sentences he was shivering so much. Madeline went in the pool for about 3 minutes and then decided water parks were not her thing either. She still says she had a great day though.

We went for a family stroll before dinner in search of coffee to get me through to bedtime. We thankfully found a cafe right next to a bridge that the kids happily ran up and down before Nora spilled my cappuccino all over me.

Our last day in Knysna was freezing. Well not really, but close enough. After we put on all the warm clothes we had we set out to the Heath It’s a cute little artisan complex with a cafe, a couple shops and a killer play area. If it hadn’t been so cold we would have spent a lot more time there. We enjoyed our time in Knysna. It was fun to get to see a new part of SA. We hadn’t really counted on the weather not cooperating so I don’t feel like I got to fully experience what the area had to offer. I’m sure we will be back another time.
