Garden Route Dinner, The Adventure !

This weekend saw in the first Garden Route Geek Dinner sponsored by Stormhoek. The event was a great success and organised by the magnificent Stii and Gerry, who provided us with a true Garden route experience by holding the venue at the Kwelanga Country Retreat, complete with roaming wildlife and a fab view.
The journey from Cape Town was a great adventure, we left in the pouring rain that continued for much of the journey, adding a touch of excitement to the driving experience. This however did not phase my traveling companions Dave, Max, Rafiq and Miguel who continued to use their laptops (please see the above pic of Miguel coding in the car!!) and have fun.
Once we arrived safe and sound things got under way quickly, first up came the speeches by Dave, Stii, Myself, Charl, Rafiq and Max, then we had four limited edition “Change the Power” Stormhoek T-shirts to give away for the first people to do an open mic session, needless to say they went fast and were adored and adorned straight away!!.
The wine flowed well and we got some great contacts for the garden route so to all those involved, Thank you very very much, and I’m looking forward to the next one.
