Shades of San Francisco & A Reception

The parallels are striking - there's the waterfront, the mountains, the fog, even sea lions (but w/an added attraction of penguins here...more on that later!) and the sparkling sunshine that gives everything an irresistable glow.


























































Paul Patin, who to Helen's delight is also a native Houstonian, is the PAO in Cape Town.  He hosted a reception the evening of May 20 at his residence, bringing together local musicians, promoters, and UCT faculty.

  1. Hey, I randomly stumbled upon your blog and the first pic I see is one of Lion's head, from my home town.

    I hope you had a good time there!
