"Your driver awaits!" was our phone message at just after 12 and there was Catherine, outside the Hotel waiting to take us out to the Waterfront. She sorted us out again as soon as she saw the weather was good and she knew we wanted to visit the Waterfront again before returning to the UK. She had arranged her day in order to take us and we know that she was off to work at 6am this morning to make up the time! She is such a good friend.She even drove via dockland so that Duncan could actually say he had been on Duncan Dock!
So we met up with Louise, Michelle and Daniel and parked in the most luxurious and expensive hotel in Cape Town as we would be having tea there later! I say "we parked" but as you can see, "we" didn't but 'Oddjob' parked for us and allowed me to take his photo too!
So off we went and what a day of joy and laughter we had. We laughed so much that the tears poured at times.
We had a wonderful meal overlooking the harbour - I may well put the photo of my calimares in chilli orange butter sauce on the next blog for you to see! Yum! Oh yes, eating again! The diet starts when we get back! Too happy yumming it all up here and not bothered about the weight at present!
We then did the shops and just had a ball.
Then, much later than we realised, we returned to the Posh hotel and sank into the lovely settees and had tea/coffee/hot chocolate with rum in front of the huge fire.
Thank you Catherine, Louise, Michelle and Daniel for a wonderful day. We love you all so much and will miss you dreadfully.
PS The giant, red sculpture is made entirely out of Coca Cola crates!
Sounds a great day - Hope Duncan enjoyed 'his' dock!! What kind people you have met there, give them our love for taking such great care of you Love Mum/Pam xx
