A wine farm in an urban area.
I presume a farm in an urban area will be acceptable in Urban Exploration?
Greetings to all and this is my first post in here, breaking new ground as they say.
This lovely farm house was built in the old original colonial style. The house has a view of the ocean and of course also a view of the mountains at the back. We popped in here at the farm's restaurant for a coffee and a quick bite to eat.
I will show you some sights here.
Spraying of the vines was in progress when we arrived.
This is the road leading up to the house.
A lovely sunshine spot to sit and eat with a great view at the end.
This is the view and you can see a swimming pool below that big tree.
As I took a photo of the view one of the farm's chickens came flying over.
It was in fact a Blue Crane bird (Grus paradisea)
Here was another of the farm's animals digging for worms.
This is an African Hoopoe bird (Upupa africana)
As we left, the tractor appeared and the driver posed with a smile.
Finally, this was the view on our way out of the farm.
There are many historic little towns in the Western Cape area of South Africa and some of the towns, like our town has expanded over the years. Land was needed for residential development and also for new businesses. So the closest farms to the towns were bought and converted into residential zones. It is not uncommon to see tractors and other farming machines on the roads in town in between all of the modern cars. Many houses in the town have their own fruit and nut trees and of course also vegetable patches, so I think that we live a semi agricultural existence in the towns.
And That's All Friends!

the vines growing now right
Oh yes, they always grow right in the Spring seasons.
Nice small farm hopefully never swallowed up by urbanization in the future, we need agriculture to keep the wine flowing 😄

Who of us can escape the monetery offer from the developers Lady Joan?
They are already crawling nearer to that farm from both ends.
Look at our countries and see how many wetlands had to succumb to the developers. Oh and also to the miners, both inland and at the coasts.

What could be better than fresh air, beautiful scenery and good wine! Superb!
More fresh air, beautiful scenery and good wines could always be better :)
This farm looks nice and clean and I am sure you have got a delicious meal (I have just had spaghetti as late lunch because I have just come home).
... and the chicken can fly - either you or the chicken had too much of the wine there. These were my first thoughts before I read on 🤣
!BEER and !WINE and !PIZZA - perfect 😃

I had a farm slice of bread with jam, two fried eggs and a sausage. Marian had the same and the homemade "Moercoffee" was the best.
I hope that your spaghetti was good.
Hahaha, yes, the chicken fell into a wine vat and discovered that he can fly 🤣
Your first thoughts show me that there is nothing wrong with your humor 🤣
Cheers and thanks.
That sounds like a delicious meal Zac 😋
I also think my humor is still quite right, although I sometimes think I should tell these thoughts to a mental doctor 🤣
!BEER and !PIZZA - nice 😃

Fresh homemade farm bread is the best my friend 😉
No, no, no, not at all as you are talking straight jacket stuff again my friend.
Besides you are still too young for a place in an asylum 🤣🤣🤣
Cheers and thanks.
That's correct, Zac, when we were young my mother used to bake the bread at home, and sometimes she still does, and we have also got fresh bread from our neighbors who were farmers.
Oh, it would be great to live in such a facility, there are nice servants, they call them nurses, and they stay nice whatever I do or say, and the side effects of the pills I get are also nice ... 😎
!PIZZA and !BEER - sounds like a nice dinner :)

Oh yeah, I remember and the home made rusks and other baked goodies can also spoil a person.
Now we have discussed your tendering for a funny jacket before Hannes and the most beautiful young nurse will be of no use when you cannot move your arms that are strapped in that jacket.
The side effects of the pills will also have a paranoia effect at times and you might see the nurse as a monster coming to eat you 🤣
So please try your best to stay semi sane 🤣🤣🤣
Cheers and thanks.
... or the paranoia effect will let me see the ugliest nurse as a beautiful young woman 😍 🤪 ... I think you are right and I'll stay sane 😉
!PIZZA and !BEER - sounds like a nice dinner :)

Hahaha, true and yes, your best option is to try your very best to be as sane as I am 😎
Now all of us cannot do this and I am no exception, so to be more or less 50% sane is good enough for me.
All that I ask is try your best Hannes 🤣🤣🤣
Cheers and thanks.
Okay, my friend, I will also do my best and hope to reach 50%, but I'm not sure if I can make it 🤣
!PIZZA and !BEER - sounds like a nice dinner :)

Good evening again Hannes,
I have not replied to the previous reply, as it is on Andy's blog, so I also apologised.
Attaining 50% of sanity is indeed very difficult and I also tried to get there for many years 🤣
I hasten to add that 21% is not a bad score for me, as at least I am trying 🤣🤣🤣
Cheers and thanks.
Good evening Zac,
I haven't even realized that we were on Andy's blog, to be honest 😉
At least we know we are not completely sane 🤣
!PIZZA and !BEER - sounds like a nice dinner :)

Hahaha, he is a good guy, but both you and I are not adavantage takers, so now the matter is at rest and all is good 🙂
Cheers and thanks.
😀👍

I probably should update the description for this community. Its more for old broken down places that are abandoned rather than habitable ones. No worries.., you are not the first to mis-post.
Sincere apologies as I really thought that it meant actual urban exploration, but I should have known that it is for deserted places. Was just trying to return your support to us.
Next time that I see a slam dunk building I will put it in here.
No worries!
Thank you and also for voting on my posts.
