Sunday 30th November- Lunch in town


The sun was blazing down as we awoke this morning and so we went for our usual walk down the beach and then called in to the cake shop in Taipa, as the neighbours are coming for afternoon tea.

Due to the butchers being closed on Saturday afternoon we had decided to have lunch in town and therefore went to the Waterside Café which, strangely enough, overlooks the water.

We both had the Blue Nose fish which was pan fried and served with a salad and a compote of vegetables and sat and watched the sea

And people wander by. The Café was virtually empty as we arrived at 1215 but it filled up quite nicely over the next hour. It was a most enjoyable and tasty lunch

Later in the afternoon, the neighbours came around and we had a pleasant afternoon discussing local events and generally whiling away the time. The neighbours also brought some cake and so we had enough to feed quite a few people in the end. It was a nice way to spend the day overlooking the bay and putting on sun protection cream.

Tomorrow we have to chase up the builders as there is a water leakage problem in the house.
