Our holiday just keeps getting better.
Cape Town has put on it's best to stun us again: whales wallowing
in the waves below us, mountains decked out in spring finery and the
most lovely weather.

| Death by chocolate - Grace, Francis, Stuart, Sara and Alec |
We've stayed in Constantia with Alec &
Sara in their lovely Cape Georgian home and have taken their Toby for
walks along the Alphen trail. We also went to a packed opera house to
see La Traviata where I bumped into many familiar faces. It's
fantastic seeing the new South Africa in action: the chorus was
almost exclusively made up of large African women dressed in unusual
costumes with the most lovely voices and it certainly made for a very
different and refreshingly African La Traviata.
Conal has as usual managed to fill our
social calendar with his usual energy and we've been busy dashing
around at a steady rate catching up with family and friends this time
we've been at a more leisurely pace.

| Symphony in white - flowers in Cape Point |
Alec & Sara invited us to Betty's
Bay where we celebrated Sara's birthday – Kate, Francis, Grace and
Stuart, Leon and some of the neighbours joined us for tea and the
most decadent Black Forest cake. Death by chocolate!
