Makers Landing

From the gallery, we walked over to Makers Landing at the Cruise Terminal. This collection of food shops and restaurants had a very good write up on a blog I was reading, but most of it appeared to be closed or not really finished, so we didn’t linger. Instead, we retraced our footsteps to the waterfront and went to Quay Four for a light lunch. The sun had come out and, whilst it wasn’t warm enough to sit outside, it was really pleasant inside watching the boats going about their business in the harbour. Mark had mussels and I had very tasty homemade fishcakes.

We then popped in to Pick and Pay to buy spreadable butter (they don’t sell it in Spar) and found ourselves some very heavily discounted brie and parmesan cheeses. Result! We managed to get home in the dry.

Back at the hotel, Mark did the laundry while I wrote and posted on social media. We had pasta bolognaise for dinner and spent the evening planning the rest of the time we have in Cape Town.Read more
