Watching Cape Town go by


Sitting at my neighbourhood coffee shop, I watch a driver waiting to take a left, waving to 2 pedestrians to pass. They both smile & saunter across the road. He rests his forearms on the wheel, happy to let a whole parade pass. People here seem more relaxed, with more time to stop & chat, to let people pass on the road. Maybe the Mtn's presence is a reminder of bigger, slower things?
