Once voted the most beautiful city in the world, it's always a wonderful thing to return to Cape Town no matter how arduous the trip to get there!
We've had a fun and mellow few days in the city and out:
a lovely two nights in cute and comfy Treehouse Boutique Hotel in Greenpoint;
dinner at "Caramba", a traditional, family owned Portuguese restaurant serving yummy grilled calamari and peri peri prawns all while we watched Portugal beat Switzerland in the FIFA World Cup Soccer Tournament!
Lunch at Die Strandloper, a delightful, rustic seafood restaurant right on the beach in Langebaan, a town an hour and a half north of Cape Town, where Nev soon made friends with a large crowd of locals and happily enjoyed Jaeger shots with them knowing that I was driving home!
And breakfast this morning with dear friends: Hillary and Wayne, Brenda and Arnie, and Sharon, at Lily's on the waterfront on a brilliantly blue skied Cape Town day, in the shadow of magnificent Table Mountain.
Today we head out to the winelands and the fun and festivities planned for the marriage of Alex and Emma this weekend.
Emma is the daughter of Gary and Janine Barnes-Webb, our dear friends at Rancho Leonero in Mexico, and we're thrilled and honored to be guests at this totally happy celebration.
