There is a bush maze in Mouille Point called Serendipity. A nice old man runs it. This is claimed as the 3rd largest maze in the world. He has an old newspaper article about it with a photo, where it looks full of bushes and trees. The old man says a tidal wave wiped out half of it (I guess I can look up if that was the tsunami). It's currently being rebuilt (regrown rather). So now, the maze is sparse, but there are wires and makeshift fences put up along the bare paths. It's still a tough maze to solve. Took us some time to find the middle. There, you discover a small wooden table and benches and can make a wish. After finding our way out, the old man let us choose a poem from his book. He likes mostly western poems, and asked me to read a couple to Ronny. When I was done, he smiled and said he loved hearing the poems read in a western accent. Apparently we all sound like Texans to the Capetonians.
An outdoor putt-putt is next to the maze. We played a couple of games. Nothing near the elaborate miniature golf we have in the states, but still fun to play ocean side. We had dinner at the Dubliner where the shepherd's pie is awesome. Then shopped at Greenmarket Square for more souvenirs. Still need to buy a new suitcase to bring back all the stuff we've accumulated.
