Cape Town

Hi All,
So Ryan's been better than me with keeping everyone updated through technology... go figure. But he did not get a chance to write about Cape Town. Cape Town is one of our favorite cities, but this time the weather was making it a little more difficult for us to enjoy. We were lucky enough to drive in on a beautiful day and we stoped in Franshoek, for some wine tasting and a great lunch at a quaint restaurant. Par for the course in Fanshoek. The weather gods showed us favor one more time, so we could go up table mountain and spend time on a friends motor yacht in Cape Town harbor. (A beautiful well thought out ship that has gotten my husband thinking...) We did the rest of the normal stuff in not so great weather despite the time of year. Simon's town and the penguins had a new twist though on the drive there we saw tons of whales just of the beach. Apparently this is where they come to mate, some truly magnificent "action." We ended the trip with a dinner with all of Ryan's high school friends and their significant others at a nice restaurant in town. It was great to hear some old stories about my hubby in his younger years, plus new ones of what everyone in Cape Town is up to with out him. Well I have to go now our flight is about to board, so we will chat later.
