Cape Town is two thumbs up

Wednesday, September 3rd, 2008

Many people speak fondly of Cape Town, including everyone in Joburg, and rightly so. Great views, food from around the world and a very laidback and gay-friendly atmosphere. Stellenbosch around the corner for a youthful university town, Franschhoek for champagne-tasting and Simonstown for a stroll on the beach. Saying goodbye to Devon was positively no fun.

Nice rich boulevard
CT is also home to many wealthy Europeans.

Rather typical
I’m not surprised.

Mike bargaining hard. He joined us for a couple of days around Cape Town.
