While the
Parkin family were visiting Capetown, Matt and Wendy announced their engagement. Matt surprised Wendy by proposing to her on the third anniversary of their meeting. He asked her on Boulders Beach near
Simons Town. There are penguins at Boulders and as they take a partner for life, Matt decided it was an appropriate spot to pop the
question. Luckily Wendy said yes, as Evan and Wendy's father Terry had the bubbles on hand ready to celebrate.
Terry, Carol, Wendy and Tracey Drew were wonderful hosts during our time with them. Besides showing us all of the sights of Capetown they loaded us into their
VW transporter and took us all the way up the Garden Route to
Addo Elephant National Park. We came back at a more leisurely pace staying for a few nights at
Plettenberg Bay. Carol is a real science
whizz and keptme informed on the local flora and fauna.
