11 Nov 2023 Cape Town to see Darren before he goes back to Palma and to collect the GWM P Series LTD

Set off from St Francis just after 5 am and travelled to Cape Town. We collected the GWM P Series LTD from Thorp Motors in Plumstead. Shannon was great and explained most of the car media items, after which we drove to Cape Town.

Stayed at a lovely Airbnb, small and cosy and went for dinner at Don Armando as a goodbye treat for us and Darren. The food was great and very tasty.
Kingklip and salad with zucchini fries. A lovely evening with lots of mixed feelings as we then took Darren to the airport and went back to the flat.
Flowers from Darren.

The next day we had an uneventful drive back to Plett. Great to drive the GWM and get used to it. A very easy drive and I am looking forward to using it for the next 7 years.

We got to Nicky and Gavins beautiful house and enjoyed our time with them and Mat. A great dinner, slept really well and a beautiful walk the next morning with Mat, Nicky and Sheila.

We are now at Stanley island lodge. Was met and brought across on the ferry.  We going to Adrian's 60th at the Plett angling club at 6pm which is a 5 minute ferry ride across.

Zebras, buck, ducks and a blue crane.
