Yesterday my husband and I joined our good friends Patrick and Nia for lunch at the renowned Terroir Restaurant located on the Kleine Zalze wine farm in beautiful Stellenbosch, South Africa. The food was delicious, and we also enjoyed stunning views of the Cape Fold Belt, such as the view in this week’s “Monday Geology Picture.”

Speaking of Patrick and Nia, they’ve kindly sent through some pictures from their recent vacation in Greece. I’m looking forward to sharing some of those pictures with you here as part of future “Monday Geology Picture” posts. You may remember that last year I shared some geological pictures from Patrick and Nia’s 2012 vacation to the Seychelles, where one can see, among other things, Gondwana granites.
