i just wanted to say a quick hello-- i'm in love with cape town! its been a busy 3 days so far &i have 2 more to go. we're all getting ready for our wine tour &dinner in a tree house! we'll be stopping at 5 wineries and driving through the winelands.

i was a bit impulsive yesterday and purchased a larger camera to go along with my point-and-shoot. i am so excited to capture this trip in even more detail! its a great camera and i'll be able to get my 14% south african tax back! yay!

off to breakfast &then bring on the wineries! :)

Laura
I DO wish I was with you at the wineries! Especially for my birthday! Thanks Bren!
It is a shame you can't bring wine home, but bring home info and we will try and purchase them...probably not in West Virginia ha ha...but Maryland has a better selection.
And I agree on the camping too...My idea of camping is staying at a hotel that doesn't have room service! :-) Can't wait to see the pictures. Uncle Dan Quote: Move it Move it!!!!
Love,

BOUDE to you!! I am SOOOOOO sad that I wasn't on skype when you rang in!! It made me very bou...de~~

Sounds like you've been running your boude off! And a new camera isn't even fair - but what a GREAT time to have it. So excited for the pics when they arrive....

Caro and JIMBO are home for the weekend - um. oui/ jimbo...they say they are now in an organic relationship - it's living and growing.......hummm....caroline is tres happy, which is good - I know she'll tell you all about it very soon. We are about to go shoe shopping....

You know, in europe they have these boude machines to wash your heiny - check it out ;)

Our De has been sunny until it turned bou and cloudy and COLD. Cape Town sounds pretty good about now! And it's drizzling too

SOOO SOOO happy to hear that you are having a BOUDEcious time - i love how you are "in love" with everywhere you go - fantastic!!

Don't drink too much at the winery and fall out the tree and break your boude!!! LOURVE YOU!!! aunt t

Hello Laura,

Glad to hear you're "doing the town."
Aunt Darcey is also doing wine tonight at dinner but not in a treehouse. I was reading "T's" comments and my current verify word is laterap. Maybe later we'll rap ??? I not nearly as twisted as Aunt T when it comes to the words. Maybe she's the original twisted "T." Actually that's probably true !!! Sorry I haven't been here during your calls. Can't wait to catch up. Bummer that the water temp. is only 62 degrees. :)
Like LMM I too am jealous.
Love, Dad
