We went down to Cape Town as Grant was going to ride the Argus (completed 114km in 3 hours 54 minutes, well done Babes) but made a whole long weekend of it. We flew down early Friday morning. Collected our rental car and made our way to the Argus Expo to collect Grant's race pack. However it was bucketing down and we couldn't find parking. So we decided after an hour of driving around aimlessly to just go check into our accommodation. I had booked us in at The Grand Daddy but in their Airstream Trailer Park on the roof of the hotel. (only one in the world). There are six trailers all individually decorated in a theme by a different designer. We stayed in Dorothy (a duck egg blue interior with white polka dots) and Jordyn and her friend stayed in Love of Lace (a very girly, pink, frilly, lacy themed trailer)
After settling in to our eclectic accommodation we went down to the V and A Waterfront to visit Lush Lush - mmmmmmm then had a yummy lunch of oysters and muscles at Quay Four.
We met up later with our good friend Tracy for cocktails on the roof then made our way out to Ocean basket for dinner
All in all, a great first day (even the pouring rain couldn't get our spirits down)
Till next time
Xoxo
