  2. Hello there you all at the boat ,
    I, Hectors grandmother and Björn came here to SouthAfrika, 40 km from Cape Town, a week ago. We were looking for warm and sunny weather but not the 35 degrees we had the other day and next weekend it will be around 40!!.
    Such days we don’t spend at the golfcourse.
    However wheather change very quickly with some rainshowers announced tomorrow and around 26. Golfcompetition is at the schema.

    Today we have visited 3 vineyards, tested wine and had lunch. Wine is a very big industri here and most of the wines keep high standard.

    We follow your further aventures and are very glad for the beatiful photos. Hector I can still recognice you!!

    All the bests from us / Margarete and Björn
