... the left side of the road (from Thailand), so between the two of them we figured we were set. Driving Chico takes all three members of the traveling team. The driver must concentrate on shifting the car and staying on the left side of the road. The navigator must plan the route and make sure we stay on track. And the back seat rider must watch out for unpredictable animals and people crossing the road. <br><br>On our way out of Cape Town, we had to ...

... to choose from. How the uni students ever do any study I've no idea. Such a beautiful uni - sprawled over tree lined streets dotted with boutique shops. I image it attracts St Andrews type students. Yar yar darling, put it on Daddy's gold card. I admired impala skins in nearby shops... really not sure why, but I am obsessed with them. Not entirely sure what I would do with it back in London but it would make for an interesting conversation starter. Oliver has so far escaped ...

... were around us and when we turned off the N2 onto the R310 suddenly we were being flanked by rows of vine stretching across hillsides and it was just....again....forgive the repetiion....breathtaking. Anyhoo...we made great time and hit the first spot on my MTM&gt; Spier Winery, right after the Ostridge farm on the left, as the MTM said. We drove in and parked up licking our lips at the idea of wine (I should point out it was barely midday ...

... if he really thought he could cure AIDS or bad luck. He didn't seem like an elaborate conman, but he didn't seem like some all-seeing shaman either, just like a normal tradesman going about his daily business curing cancer. Probably the most intriguing thing I saw during the tour was something that we only passed quickly on the motorway. On a stretch of empty scrub between the township and the motorway were a collection of small round tents made from wood frames and covered ...

... stadium being built for the FIFA World Cup, which is being hosted here in 2010. Next we passed a hill that had a canon atop it. Prior to having light houses in the area, the canon was fired and used as a warning method for ships in the area. The canon is still fired every day at noon out of tradition. Our first actual stop on the walking tour was St. George's Cathedral. During the apartheid, this whites-only ...

... this country so much already and I've got so much left to see! (those of you who aren't in the know, Bomba and I are taking the bus along the coast, rather than hiring a car because that turned out much more diffucult than planned!) I miss everyone, but will be sending postcards later (if you want one, give us your address yeahhhhhhhhhh mate) PEACE AND LOVE TO ALL xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

... done. We had some booze with the locals in a shebeen, and took a trip to a school with the cutest little kids. We passed by the township were Benni McCarthy was from, and finished at a womans refuge. Gabrielle picked up some tips from a Witch doctor too. It was great to see how friendly and welcoming everyone was, but sobering to realise the majority of the little kids would be HIV positive, and to see the incredible poverty right ...

Having arrived at CT Airport early we managed to get onto an earlier flight which boarded about 15 minutes after we arrived which was good luck. This meant that we got to Jo'burg at 17h15 instead of 18h10 which made life so much easier for us. The SAA business class flight was very good.

... reading this. 2. Kudu- another antelope (there are a multitude of different antelope here). I had this in steak form as well with some kind of a cranberry glaze on it. Also, very delicious, just like steak at home. 3. Boerwor- yippee, South African street meat! Nice to know that some customs are universal! After a fun night out on long street we head to the street meat cart for our Boerwor ...

... and an african bumble bee (they are big..). Anyway, if you should get a chance, go to Cape Town. I will have had alsmot 5 days here, and it's nowhere near enough. I'm about to visit the district 6 museum & castle and then tomorrow I'm touring the penisula, some cycling involved, so glad I've warmed up the legs after walking up the mountain! I think I've managed to apck all the right kit, the only ...
