• Shopping time

    28. november 2023, Sør-Afrika ⋅ ☀️ 21 °C

    Today was declared the shopping day on the V&A waterfront. But first, we wanted to go to Robben Island. Unfortunately, when we got to the waterfront and ferry terminal, we were told that the tours were booked until Friday! Very disappointing. Claudine, 20 years ago, had wanted to go there when in Capetown but lack of money prevented her from doing it. This tome, it was time that stood in our way.
    Instead, we went through the small museum at the harbour.
    Then we started our shopping tour, the country is very cheap for Swiss tourists and branded clothes are a bargain. We did not buy much though for fear of not fitting it in our luggage.
    We visited the silo, an old grain silo which was transformed into an art museum and a hotel at the top. It is very cool what has been done.
    We went back to the hotel to change before dinner. We had booked a popular South African speciality restaurant on the waterfront. The food was very good and so was the entertainment.
