Last up on our journey through the markets of the Western Cape are the West Coast and Central Karoo regions, the two vast landscapes that create the border between us and the Northern Cape of South Africa.
The Cape West Coast, a region that conjures up visions of sleepy fishing villages and flowers for as far as one can see. The Central Karoo, an arid land filled with charm from a bygone era, it makes one feel as if you have stepped back into a Victorian Age.
