Tygerberg zoo, Cape Town

I did both the zoo and the museum recently. I agree with Julz on the zoo. It rundown and depressing but they need the support. I get the idea that they are trying.
Ethan liked the outdated little dinosaur exhibition at the museum and the stuffed lions! In front of the planetarium is a little gadget that explains how a black hole works - you throw money (any coin) and watch it spin "into oblivion". Ethan could have spent the day just doing that!!
1st Timer I am so with you on a playcafe that sells wine. In fact if it comes with really good food - it will be a bonus. usually its crappy food and no alcohol...ai!
That would make it an outing for both parent and child. This is why whenever we go to Joburg I meet all my old friends at Bambanani in Melville. That way Ethan has supervised play and I can chat to friends whilst eating really good food downed with a glass of wine!

It's in sunningdale..

Lol. Which spur is that memo? The one I usually go to only has kiddie TV and playstations.

I suspect I am in withdrawal. I've just started the looooong 2 week wait and am looking down the barrel of a min 2 and max 38 week dry spell!

Well 1st timer than I'm gonna have to suggesst a spot that I never understood people actually go to until now. SPUR... they have the most magnificent play area, well most of them do.. inside and outside, well ours does anyway. the food is shit, but they serve booze AND they have a baby sitter type watching the kids?!!!!
i was so amazed I took pics.

Well I wouldn't be keen on a place with tequila and vodka shooters but there are some days I could definitely benefit from a glass of dry white with lunch!

I like the playshed too.

I am not keen on taking Dylan to play areas that sell alcohol to be honest so that is cool that they don't. Yes I drink, but I hope the parents can last a couple of hours without a drink.
