Having a Blast in Cape Town with Loved Ones

That's me with 3 of our kids and my dad, stepmom, and stepbrother.
Robbie was taking the photo.

Today's post is a special tribute to Chester, my dear stepbrother, who we quickly came to love after meeting him for the first time a couple of weeks ago only to find out this morning that he suddenly passed away. Our prayers are with his loved ones at this time. I have more photos of Chester on Wine Tasting at Leipzig.

The Watershed and Waterfront, Cape Town

We went to Cape Town for Jessica's 21st birthday celebration. Last week I shared photos of the High Tea that we had and today's photos are of us walking around the Waterfront. We popped in at the Watershed where all kinds of cool handmade things can be bought. I only took a few photos inside and I tried to avoid getting other people in the shots. The photo that has me in looks like a selfie, but actually Hubby took that pic. We didn't have a lot of space to stand, so he was really close to us. All around we had a lovely time and the weather was perfect!

High Tea at Cape Grace, Cape Town

This past Sunday was our daughter's 21st birthday! Jessica is a student at the University of Cape Town, so we took her out for high tea at the Cape Grace Hotel. It's a 5 star luxury hotel right on Cape Town's famous Victoria & Alfred Waterfront. Hubby made all the arrangements (it was his idea), but his mom wanted to pay, so it was her treat too. She also baked Jessica a cake that morning! All four of our kids were there (Jeremiah, Jessica, Samantha, and Amanda) and two of Jessica's closest friends. Only my father-in-law couldn't make it because he just recently came out of hospital and is still recovering.

William was our friendly server for the afternoon. He poured the sparkling wine and Amanda's Appletiser, which is a sparkling fruit juice. I tried to capture the moments with candid shots as much as possible. There was a steampunk vibe in the adjoining rooms. Look closely at the chairs and the chandelier and you'll notice the quirky decor. You can click on the images to make them larger.
