Big Day

Our big day started with a trip to Muizenberg for lunch. We walked on the streets of Muizenberg, the City, to Blonde and Beard. We could see Muizenberg, the mountain as well.

We met Elizabeth, who now works for YWAM but grew up in our U.S. church. After a nice lunch, we walked a couple blocks to watch the surfers on False Bay. I photographed the colorful beach houses and took a panorama. On the walk back to our car, we saw signs encouraging voters to choose the EFF (Economic Freedom Fighters) in upcoming municipal elections.

Thereafter, we drove to the Somerset West mall to drop Mark for a movie. Tracy, Catherine, and I then drove to the Playhouse Theatre to catch a production of The Wizard of Oz, featuring Julia and Catherine, daughters of our friends Bob and Lianna. It was fantastic; lots of fun for all. Cast members greeted theatregoers after the show.

We were told the show would run two and a half hours, but it was three hours fifteen minutes. So, we picked Mark late from his movie and went home. The final activity for today was an excellent Italian dinner at Decameron with Bob and Lianna. Our Catherine, Julia, and their Catherine had great fun together.
