Daily Schedule

December 27th

I arrive in Cape Town pretty early for anyone that is around. I plan to jump on my Vespa and head to Clifton 3rd Beach (The Gay Beach) for some SUNNNNNNN from around 2 - 4:30pm!!
After that I will be home so please stop by for a drink with some good beats from 5 - 7pm. Please arrive by Uber only, and do not congregate in the street at our house due to potential neighbor complaints. Address: ADDRESS
At 7pm let’s head over to Chinchilla and Surf Shack for some more drinks, good beats, and food in Camps Bay. The views and sunset from up here is lovely, so let’s enjoy this as we kick this week off. Very chilled atmosphere. It's night one, so who knows.... maybe pop into the local gay bars or stop somewhere local in town after??? We will play this by ear as the night continues…. its time to get into the Cape Town vibe!!!

December 28th

It's a new day and you have all day to explore Cape Town and surroundings - Refer to my suggestions/recommendations as these are all good options.
I am attending a 60th bday party in the afternoon, and then I have dinner with my family. However, that should not stop the fun to be had. Sunset in Camps Bay is amazing so there will be sunset drinks and dinner at Restaurant 41 at 7:30 pm. Drinks beforehand at xxx is really fun and I highly recommend stopping for something delicious. Try not to go too crazy today/tonight, as we will be hiking Lions Head Mountain in the morning, which I strongly recommend.

Lions Head.jpg — December 29th

Grab a quick brekkie for energy, and grab your water bottles as we are about to climb Lions Head Mountain at sunrise and enjoy the amazing views from up there (1.5 hours up and 1 hour down).
Make sure to rest after and grab some breakfast or lunch around town to build up that energy for the Legendary Boat Party around Cape Town with spectacular views, starting at 2pm, through sunset. We have had lots of success in Rio so lets bring this energy to Cape Town!!! We are going to sail around the coast and anchor in Clifton to enjoy the rest of the day in the sun. We will sail back around sunset.
Either Jason Cook or Andrew Bowen will be hosting a pool party right after the boat party, so I say grab some food somewhere close to where we are docking, refill what you need to refill and lets go have some fun with him and the other UK/SA folks - more to come!

December 30th

Paragliding down the mountain for the adventurous folks. This is weather dependent so the plan is to wrap this up in the morning so we can have fun for the rest if the day :)
I plan to enjoy all day on the beach sucking on my Granadella lolly, to make you jolly. I would say a full on beach day on either Clifton 3rd or 4th Beach. None the less for those that did not make the day in the sun, some of our friends have the cutest little bungalows on Clifton 4, so I say let’s crank up the energy, see how late we can stay for sunset and enjoy a couple drinks t before we head to another night of fun at The Grand Pavilion.
We plan to have a later start at The Grand Pavilion for dinner, lets call it 8:30pm and this place is going to be a blast eating and shaking some ass while we do it. Dinner and club, cheesy? I guess so but its gonna be a blast. This very new cute spot right on beachfront in Seapoint. Cant wait!!

December 31st

You "do you" all day, however the Safari Disco New Years event will start late afternoon/evening - Full on All Night Party! Exact time and venue to be announced. Bring your neon, be the wildest version of yourself that you can imagine so bring your goodies boys and girls, this is going to be a full on dancing event!!! I see lights, neon flares, everything to make you be you.
Spare all your energy as we are going to light this town on fire. Imagine old school disco meets safari meets rave meets vocals. Lets bring it all back. MUST: Let your hair down and dance the night away!!!

January 1st

The official birthday lunch!
Have you had real South African food yet? I doubt it. I would love to invite you to my official birthday lunch to experience some REAL South African cuisine (I am doing a Braai, some of you might call this a BBQ) poolside with a great selection of South African wines & beer. Yes and some margaritas!!!
Please arrive by Uber only, do not congregate in the streets due to potential neighbor complaints, and bring your towels for some fun in the sun/pool.

January 2nd

Vineyard tours all day. We will start early and the busses will leave at 9am. We will stop at two vineyards before our 3 stop that will be a typical South African lunch. We are going to cram a lot in on this day as I want you guys to get a real feel of the wine country. As much as we love to be fashionably late, please stick to the schedule on this day or you might miss the next stop!!!!
After all the stops we will have a lunch at one of the farms. Dress so you feel beloved in the wine country but also bring some swim wear as I am trying to get us a pool for post lunch refreshments. This will be a full day event. No planned dinners, everyone can play by ear.

January 3rd

Wake up, grab some breakfast to fill your belly, and let's plan on some Kayaking in the bay with the hope to see some dolphins, whales or sharks, most probably early in the morning.

Beach or Pool day, lets see how we feel. However for folks that still have some interest in Helicopter, or Shark cage diving. This is a good day to do these.

Pool/Sunset drinks at Bowens house in Seapoint.

Lastly, we need to grab dinner at Kloofstreet House. Focus is moving from Party to Food, but trust me this place is pretty amazing.

January 4th

At sunrise I will be doing a more aggressive hike up Table Mountain for the brave!!! This is going to be my first time, but my friends Christo and Ricci have done this a ton of times and they love it. I am NOT hiking down again and will be taking the cable car down. All in, this should probably be about 3 hours hiking up and then some exploring on Table Mountain and taking the cable car down.
However for folks that still have some interest in Helicopter, or Shark cage diving. This is a good day to do these.
Beach or Pool Day, lets see how we feel but maybe get in a bit of beach and then enjoy our last evening together at Ron's pool in Higgovale.

January 5th

Tour from Cape Town to Cape Point and the surroundings. Again, this will be a full day tour if you join, soooooo grab a meaty breakfast before the tour starts. The plan is to leave Cape town around 9am with our buses and to go all the way on the coast, through Houtbaai, seeing the amazing Chapmans peak and making your way to Cape Point, officially named The Cape Of Good Hope.
Everyone can roam around Cape Point for about 90 min. You can go all the way to the top, or if it is not too windy you can take a 20-30 min hike at the bottom to the southernmost point. Views are insane and there is a small store if anyone needs some refreshments.
After Cape Point, there will be a 30 min ride to Boulders Beach for a quick stop to see the famous Penguins. Roam around for 45 min and then we have a quick 20 min drive to Kalkbaai. We will have lunch at 2:15pm at a restaurant on the water called Harbour House. 2 hour stop should allow enough time for lunch and walking around town. If you have time grab a beer at Brass Key, this is a very local fisherman’s town. Bus will leave Kalkbaai at 4:15pm and will head back to Cape Town arriving around 5pm.

January 6th-9th

SAFARI at Thornybush Lodge. On arrival at the airport there will be transportation to the lodge, and the rest…. YOU WILL HAVE TO WAIT AND SEE. Now we are really in Africa!!!
