A "Holiday" is a magical word for learners, working people, teachers and parents collectively. An essay on "holidays" is thee most popular topic as every kid feels enthusiastic writing about there holiday experiences but as always the holidays do come to an end.
This weekend coming is the last for this mid year holiday and am sure you would love for your kids to end it on a HIGH.
Have I got an awesome idea for you. There is ONLY one place to be and that IS at the "South African Air Force Museum" at Ysterplaat Air Force Base. It is the "hidden Gem" of Cape Town without a doubt. Ask anyone who has been there in last year. It is an incredible experience and is wonderful to meet all the passionate volunteers who dedicate there time and money to the preservation, the history and heritage of our South African Air Force. Over 4000m2 of hangars and halls with amazing displays.
As it looks now, seems we will dodge the rain on Saturday morning so why not put on a few winter warmers and pop down to our hidden gem for an hour or 3. Guaranteed you will go away with a big smile and everlasting memories. Kids get to feel what it is like to be a pilot and a bucket list tick for the one's who have memories to relive.
We have plenty snacks, hot and cold beverages and of course our famous German made boerewors rolls and really delicious hamburgers where the patties are not hidden inside the rolls and they are both at a steal.
Entrance is FREE of course, just a small donation would go along way in helping preserve our museum. Yes we do have card facilities so no need to worry about scratching for cash.
Hopefully I now have got you keen to join us this Saturday 6th July.
Open from 9 am till 2pm with last tour to the big boys hangar leaving at 1 pm so get there early as I'm sure you don't want to miss out on the fun.
Till then, have an awesome week, stay safe and take care. Ciao for now.
