Strolling about in Cape Town

Walked 11-15 km today, from Kloof Straat via Boo-Kap down to Green Point and the old lighthouse. Had a great stew "potjie" at Sea Point for lunch, then a glass of crisp Sauvignon Blanc at Harold's Wine Bar before walking back. Passed a bunch of old-timers playing some kind of colonial version of bowling on an immaculate lawn.

In the evening we tried out the €0,75 beer and €2,50 hamburger at the local joint. Both worked. In high spirits we continued our immersion in the local culture, drinking South African Brandy and coke on our balcony, complemented with Dutch cigarillos and jazz. Now that's what I call a pleasant evening!
