A Few 2010 Franschhoek Bastille Festival PicturesWe had such a wonderful time at the 2010 Franschhoek Bastille Festival, last weekend, that we thought we’d share some of the fun with those who couldn’t attended. The Chef and The General Manager having a fabulous time setting the Le Quartier Français and Bread & Wine stands.
Archie, ever the educator, taking some time out to explain to the Môreson team where Mademoiselle Lamb Burgers come from.
The Saturday crowd. It was like this from 12:00 – 18:00. Madness!
Judging by the crowds, and the reports we’ve already received, Bastille is a festival that is going from strength to strength. Well done to everyone who took part and big thank you to the FWVTA – and in particular Darielle – for your excellent organisation.
