| Imagine playing a round
of golf on a
perfectly manicured course, the warm
sun on your back and just the gentlest
hint of a breeze off the ocean. Mountains towering
in the background, the aroma of millions of flowers,
a birdie on the last and a cool beer sitting on
the terrace as the sun sinks
slowly over the horizon, sending up that glorious
golden glow to bounce offtiny, high, pink-tinted
clouds.?
Is it a dream? ....

No, it’s South
Africa. Welcome to golf on another planet. At least
that’s how it feels. If you’ve ever
been there, you’ll already know all this.
If you haven’t, prepare your senses for something
totally different. An overnight flight gets you
into Cape Town relaxed, and that’s how you’re
going to stay for the next week or two. The Cape
area has two of the country’s top tourist
destinations – Table Mountain and the Victoria
& Alfred
|
Waterfront,
with its exciting shopping and some spectacular
hotels where service is not merely an aim, it’s
a
serious mission. There are great restaurants where
the prices will stun you – you can eat a full
dinner for less than what some fast-food outlet
might charge for a measly hamburger – and
you will enjoy some great golf with green fees so
low you’ll be asking
if it’s OK to pay more.
