Our first Outing...May 9th

May 9th 2011-

According to Cat I was the high light of the evening... not the flying 3inch cockroach!! We went out for the evening at a beautiful restaurant called Cape to Cuba.   We laughed and dined through the evening and made declarations to visit again before the meal was even complete.  As I sipped my cranberry ginger-ale I noticed a slight shadow pass behind my head.  I slowly turned to see what caught my attention only to notice a cockroach longer than my thumb pass my head and head straight towards Cat's ear! I could not even form a proper sentence other than....Cat..Cat..Cat... as I got up and ran from the table!!
Hearing the fear in my voice Cat immediately jumped up without looking knowing danger was near.  As Cat her friend and I stood around in shock, the waiters laughed but refused to go anywhere near the table themselves. Supposedly these flying creatures are a common occurrence in South Africa and I should start to get used to it... ummmm not likely.  

To my dismay instead of leaving everyone decided to switch tables!! Can you believe this! Even after I mentioned endless horror stories of people who have been attacked...Yes by cock-a-roaches.., I am serious!  Anyway's Below is a pic of the happy party.. minus me.

 Needless to say I haven't been back.
