have you ever been to Cape Town?

The highlight of winter 2006 was our trip to Cape Town, South Africa for a childhood friend's wedding. My father didn't go however my sister, mother and I spent a glorious 8 days in Cape Town. I didn't realize that it takes a day to travel there and back so I would have extended the trip to 12 days if I had known...

We spent 3 1/2 days touring Cape Town, 2 1/2 days in Hermanus where the bride's family has a beach house and 3 days in Franschhoek (similar in feeling to Napa Valley, C), where the wedding took place. We knew the entire groom's family and all of the bride & groom's friends so it seemed like a continuation of summer dinners out on Long Island just a few more miles away.

More to write and with photos... Must dash off to work now!
