Staying in Stellenbosch

While we’ve had to modify our travel plans and extend our stay in Stellenbosch, we’re not exactly languishing here.  For one thing, we’re in a suite that’s larger than John’s first house.  And in the event that’s not enough room for us, we practically have the hotel to ourselves.

If you look very closely at that white speck at the end of the parking lot, that’s our car.  Our very lonely car.

On Saturday we went out and about, including a stop at a nearby shopping center (spelled “centre” here).  It appears that beanbag chairs are back -

Bronze sheep were hanging out in the mall -

Since there are so few people at the hotel, the restaurants have cut back their hours, so we were forced to order our light lunch in the bar and enjoy it on the patio  -

This is my idea of roughing it!
