A wet weekend in Cape Town

Amanda, Barbara and I left a wet, cool Cornwall on Thursday and, 24 hours later, arrived in an equally wet and cool Cape Town.

Very wet Cape Town airport and Vineyard Hotel

Jon arrived a day later from Luxembourg, to find the rain still falling over an even colder city. That evening, we broke with tradition, skipping the Waterfront in favour of the nearby Constantia wine region, where we enjoyed a superb meal at Steenberg Wine Estate.

Saturday evening at Steenberg

Sunday dawned wet and windy as familiar faces began to gather at the Vineyard Hotel for Physical Separation ’26 and the late afternoon welcome reception, which was thankfully indoors.

And still the rain comes down!
