Mother's Day - 13 May 2012

So the first quarter of 2012 is pretty much done and dusted - as insane as that may be.
There is certainly a "nip" in the air and I think we have officially said goodbye to Summer - Autumn is definitely here...
Seeing as this is going to be my first Mother's Day, I've decided to do a post on a few suggestions for the day :)
Go on, spoil your mum!

1. Goldfish in the Park
Goldfish are playing at the Joburg Country Club's Auckland Park venue on the lawns - should be incredible. Tickets available at G&G Productions and the Country Club
Adults: R150
Children u/13: R75
Parking: R50
Order tickets from partyinthepark@ccj.co.za 


2. Lipizzaner's Performance
Cheesy? Yes. But Mom's love cheese. Bring on the cheese.
They have 2 performances (at 10:30 and 2:30) on Sunday and tickets are R130.00. The horses are incredibly beautiful animals to watch and you help to fund the Lipizzaners in South Africa by watching them :)
Take your mom for lunch out in the country afterwards.
Tickets available on Computicket

3. Johannesburg Philharmonic Orchestra
Playing at the ZK Matthews Great Hall at Unisa in Pretoria on Mother's Day, this is sure to be a wonderful performance to take your mom to, especially if she likes classical music. Performance starts at 3:00pm and last for around 2 hours.
Tickets start at R150, available on Computicket.

4. Day at a Spa
Visit Verona Day Spa together with your mom or just send her to one of the leading spas in Joburg. They have a number of specials, or you can create your own package. Try the pedicure, manicure, massage and facial for R872.00 - takes 2.5 hours. 
HINT: For all the Mom's-To-Be, they have great pregnancy packages too....
