The chance to dangle legs in the cool swimming pool situated
in the sheltered hotel courtyard whilst enjoying the sunshine was too good an
opportunity for many. Others used this time to do a little housekeeping in
their rooms. Most agreed a relaxed
return to the centre of Stellenbosch for a spot of lunch and more retail
therapy in the classy shops or market stalls was a great way to spend a few
hours prior to meeting our final hosts at Somerset College which is situated in
the exclusive suburb of Somerset west. On entering the campus which is set in
the middle of the famous Stellenbosch wine producing area bordered by large
stud farms, the whole group seemed to smile in unison. Having said goodbye to
12 extremely happy young ladies the remainder enjoyed a game of touch rugby or
a paddle in the sea as the sun set spectacularly behind the mountains of the
Cape.
A pleasant relaxing day and a good night’s sleep were very much necessary
in preparation for the final fixtures of the St Edward’s South Africa tour 2012.
