3rd Dove into the Waterfront to meet up with old friends passing through Cape Town on their way to the airport to return to London. 25 mins to get into the Waterfront from home an 1 hr 25mins to get back in the rush hour.
The Wterfront is such a monument to rampant consumerism but it does have lovely viws up Table Mountain and Greenpeace were in town
an of course it was an absolut bonus to meet up with Niel and Lucy again.
14th Francophone Festival at the Belgium Embassy today so Lyn and I decided to pop along and have a look. There were reprsentations from Switzerland, Greece and France (waffels and crepes with the inevitable Nutella!) but also stalls offering Vanilla from Madagascar and traditional food from many francophon countries. Their was a Francophone African band and people watching was th best with is diverse representation of the Railbow Nation.
