up telephone support lines to help the thousands of Hyundai owners across
the country who now have no official place to get their cars serviced or
repaired, and as I was leaving to go back home in early March, there was a
search on for another person or company to take over and hopefully re-start
Hyundai's African operations.
After walking around downtown, I decided to return back to the B&B via
Buitengracht Street, which passes through the Bo-Kaap Muslim area. It was a
beautiful afternoon, and my walk gave me a good feel for the city.
I returned to Radium Hall around 6:15pm, and met up with Francois V., a
local Cape Town resident who is a frequent poster on the internet newsgroup
for the Radio Shack Color Computer (an old 1980s computer that many people
still use even today -- in fact, I've written this entire travelogue on
it!) In his 4x4, we drove to the aerial car station at the base of Table
Mountain (I was hoping to be able to take it up at sunset, but clouds had
come in, and it started to drizzle). From there, we then drove along the
coastline for about 90 minutes (in alternating drizzle and sun), with
Francois showing me the smaller coastal communities of the Cape
Penninsula... areas such as Camp's Bay, Hout Bay, and Cape Point.
At about 8:00pm, we wound up in the Observatory area of Cape Town, at a
restaurant called the "African Cafe." There, for R80/US$13.11, you get
served tastes of traditional African meals from various countries. There
are about 15 selections in all, and you can eat as much of any as you want
(though neither of us were all that hungry). Still, it was an interesting
place to have dinner for a first night on the continent.
After dinner, we drove to the top of Signal Hill, where you get a good
view ...

Thank you for writing this but I'm a teacher needing fairly detailed contemporary and historical food (and other) facts about Tristan D - and St Helena. And there just isn't time to wade through all these pages to find them. By the time you read this it will probably be too late for me. I wanted to write a short play for my group before Wednesday. I have tried your search window several times without success.
I just thought it might be helpful for you to know how i am finding your system.
Thank you
