Dear Mum,
I dont know if this will be too late to post here. (added in: Cape Town) We have halted outside the harbour in a large bay. The scenery is very pretty A tremendous hill an, though not as high as Mt Wellington with the town at the foot. and ranges all round. Something like Wineglass (Bay) except it the bay is some miles across. We were anchored the early. I can just hear them getting the anchor up. I dont know whether we will be allowed ashore or when we leave.
Goodbye
Arndell.
