MORE OF GREEN POINT GARDENS

Beauty in nature and exercise can be enjoyed together in the Biodiversity Garden in Green Point. What a pleasure!
Just the place to take visitors to. That's the thing I love so much about Cape Town; the places you get to enjoy when you take your visitors to see it. There are a couple of new places I would like to go to and others I would like to revisit. 


Love this photo of the dam with 'fish-on-sticks'
with the Stadium in the background


The Gardens in Green Point is child-friendly, wheelchair/pram friendly, with lots of seating and interesting things to keep you busy on the walk. 


'SMELL THE ROSES' or INDIGENOUS PLANTS...  Will be posting own pics soon.

TAKING EXERCISES FURTHER...

Well, it IS a new year, and new goals are normally set at this time : ) ... so ... I have started WALKING ... First around one block in the neighbourhood, now up to two blocks, taking me a good 30min fast walking.
Quite proud of myself, actually! I don't always feel like getting dressed and putting on my walking shoes, but once I get going, it's easy and above all, it FEELS good! Walking is one of the most non-impact sports or exercises a person can do, yet ups the fitness level, getting the heart-rate up and the breathing slightly laboured. Tones muscles as well. So in the long run, I am hopeful of a good result ...
Well, let me be on my way. No, not walking ... got other things to do : )
Till later xx
