We visited our friends Monica and Len at their ice cream parlour near Green Point. Amazingly this was the first time Andy had visited the shop, although I have been lots of times with different visitors.
Monica and Len treated us to their delicious Belgium waffles and a selection of their Italian ice creams, followed by cappucino coffee, or in my case Rooibos tea!
While in that area we visited Moulle Point Lighthouse, with its distinctive box shape and red and white diagonal stripes:
As the sun was setting, the table cloth descended on Table Mountain creating soft pink clouds in the evening light:
The day before we left Cape Town, was a special day at CVC Media. Our baggage allowance prevented us taking many small (and not so small) items we had accumulated in the flat, including our braai grill. We decided to give these items away to our friends at CVC, in a draw.
It caused great excitement and interestingly many people drew the very item they had their eye on, and really appreciated the gifts.
That day we also were also very blessed, with gifts, prayers, love and an amazing cake. We had to dress up in 'African clothes' and enjoyed watching a special video made by the department Andy had recently set up, recording everyone's good wishes and sometimes comical memories of our two years in Cape Town.
Finally the moment came to load up the car and head off to the airport. It was raining hard, but then a magnificent rainbow appeared in the sky as if to send us off. We took that as a promise that God was smiling on us and our time in Cape Town had blessed Him too.
