Friends in Camps Bay

Today Margeaux woke me and and took me to Constantia. There, you will find of vineyards, mountains and a beach where the surfers frequent. We met up with Tony who is one of her friends. Actually that is basically what Capetown is, it's like going to the mountain and the beach at the same time. The 12 Apostles are mountains that each have a "face" and they are in the background of Camps Bay beach.

Okay, so I am having the absolute best time of my life. I have nothing but great things to say about my new friends here in CapeTown, South Africa. This place is amazing and the most beautiful place I've ever seen in my life. I'm actually staying here longer than planned. My friend Margeaux is letting me stay with here. She is just as crazy as me and we seem to get along fabulously.

Everyday starts out at our friend James's restaurant Cafe del Mar. We call it Harry's. It over looks the beach and is spectacular. I come here for lunch almost everyday and the same five of us always end up together. Everyone keeps telling me how I lucked out to find this group of friends and they are right. They have really adopted me and I feel like we have been friends for years. The day my cell phone got stolen, Graham went out and got me one and let me have it. How cool is that. And then Margeaux insists that I come and stay with her. Last night we went into the city of CapeTown and went to a fabulous Thai restaurant. Ofcourse we ended up at James' restaurant and the to a place called Karma which pretty much lives up to its name. Earlier last night I took one too many tequila shots and they ended up catching up with me by the time I got to Karma. I didn't throw up if that is what your thinking, but today I wish I would have because this hangover may have been a little more tolerable.

Anyhow, I am reading my friend Graham book called "That's Bollocks". He is an international bestseller and I must say I get a kick out of his books. He writes under the name of Jack Albert, another good one is White elephants and red herring. Graham cooked a couple of nights for me and I must say that his spaghetti Bolognese is to die for. I also tried his lamb and that is all I have to say about that one.
