Simon’s Town Wind Blows Like Blow Fish

A tourist view on Simon’s Town:
The last few night camping have gone from bad to ridiculous.One night in Simons town was so windy that the tent flapped and sucked in and out like a blow fish. I woke to the tent literally smacking me in the face and told Chris i was off to sleep in Marco (again.)Chris muttered “this is just the weather this tent is made for,”and stayed in it.More out of macho pride that sense i recon.I spent the whole night convinced the car was being lifted off the ground in a wizard of Oz way and we both surfaced baggy eyed and irritable the next day.Conversations basically involving”you did,no you did,”e.t.c with an under current of blame attached to most sentences,tutting and dirty looks.
On our travels we have been constantly suprised by how kind people have been to us. We have concerns we look a little dosey and people are pitying us!In Simons Town a woman dropped us home in the evening even though we only popped in to use the internet. It was the windy night and she said it was too bad to walk back to the site. Really kind! more
It’s great to have you back. Thanks.
