Sundowners with Lucille

By Lucille Sive

I have just returned from a fabulous two week trip to Cape Town and I have to say that if you can, you should come and enjoy this exceptionally beautiful city. I stayed at The Table Bay Hotel and the Twelve Apostles Hotel and Spa during my trip. As you have probably seen, everyone is talking about the water shortage in Cape Town and both these hotels are clearly giving their guests peace of mind that every drop of water is being used responsibly. My experience was very positive and I felt very comfortable at both properties.

In light of the news that Cape Town is experiencing a water shortage, we have been receiving questions from our guests about the situation. Given the unprecedented drought that the area is experiencing, the questions are absolutely valid. That’s why I wanted to take some time to address those questions here, based on my own experience of visiting Cape Town over the holidays, from late December to early January.

On my most recent trip to Africa, I realized one of my dreams: trekking with the mountain gorillas of Rwanda. These gentle creatures are stunning to behold and I feel privileged to have seen them in their natural habitat. As an experienced African traveler, I am no stranger to the majesty of Africa: from the spectacular Victoria Falls to the extraordinary animals such as elephants, lions, leopards and more, Africa is truly a destination of wonders. Even those incredible experiences, however, did not prepare me for my time with the mountain gorillas of Rwanda, a magical experience I am delighted to share with you now.

On July 18th, we celebrate Nelson Mandela's birthday to highlight his incredible life and the inspirational legacy that he left behind. This year’s theme is Action Against Poverty and I am excited to feature three of my favorite sustainability projects in Cape Town.
