Re: [Wikimania-l] Raining in Cape Town

Hi Mina, Depends on what you plan to do. In the city it is a reasonable temperature and a lighter jacket will do. But on top of Table Mountain it was very cold and very windy today. Casual meetups certainly take place every evening at the bar of the Southern Sun Cape Sun hotel. I can buy you a
