Well we have made it to the Mother City. After a few delays regarding tampered baggage we made it home at about 10pm (6am for those of you following this in Aussie).
Today we got up early for church. It was lovely to worship with family. Rev Comninos preached on Forgiveness! An excellent sermon with some great illustrations....like: "Forgivess is the scent a flower releases when it is crushed underfoot."
L was amazed by the omnipotence of God and how God is the same everywhere. In the words a great facebook friend, "God is everywhere, Guitar! do do do do do dodo do...." AH!
After church we replaced a suitcase in Claremont and headed off to the V&A Waterfront. It is an area much like Darling Harbour except it has Table Mountain as a backdrop, seals and statues of Nelson Mandela. There is great live entertainment and a fairly festive atmosphere. It definately beats to an African Rythmn.
We had a lovely lunch, did some shopping (Don't panic boys the Visa is still intact!), and visited the Aquarium. It was good to see some local creatures.
On the way home we passed Rustenburg Girls, Rondebosch Boys and Bishops. cL has decided he wants to go to Bishops because they have cool play equipment. Pity about the commute to get there before the bell! Oh well ;) Anyone got a concord to spare??
At the Waterfront in Cape Town
So we have had a morning and an evening and that was our first day.
and it was GOOD!
The adventure will continue in the morning....
