Cape Town has some lovely beaches but we havent had too much time to chill out on them as we are off visiting other places. Its fine for me though as Im here for 2 weeks so Ill have loads of time from Saturday to get some rays. We went off to the winelands in the morning where you get to sample lots of locally produced red and white wine. Believe it or not but I actually managed to drink them without any lemonade!! I didnt have much choice really as I dont...

There was just our cabins and nothing else for about 50 miles ! We had no power and no phone connection so it was like being in the middle of nowhere.
