• Bo-Kaap, Waterfront and Christmas dinner

    December 25, 2022 in South Africa ⋅ ☀️ 21 °C

    This morning we first took the bus to a stop close to Bo-Kaap and walked through the neighborhood and took pictures of the nice colorful houses. Since I read something online about noon gun we went to the place where that was supposed to happen at noon but after walking all the way up a very steep hill and waiting for 10 minutes it got noon and nothing happened but at least we had our exercise for the day. In the afternoon we went back to the Waterfront and enjoyed more live music and street performances. Towards the end of the afternoon we managed to find a place at a restaurant at the Waterfront where we could enjoy a very lovely tapas dinner for Christmas. After this lovely dinner we took the bus back home where we could not longer procrastinate and really had to start packing our bags. Afterwards we cuddled for hours until we fell asleep, it is still so hard to believe that this is our last night together. But we know it's the last night together for now but definitely not forever and that is what we try to hold on to. We are really trying to stay strong for ourselves and each other.Read more
