It would appear as though Santa Claus is stuck in Cape Town. He seems to have been hanging about at the Victoria & Alfred Waterfront's shopping centre for quite some time and I've seen no signs of reindeer, let alone a sleigh, anywhere! Will the gifts be delivered on time? I'm not so sure - nobody's that fast. :)

Shopping centres seemed to be fairly quiet on Sunday, becoming busier on Monday and Tuesday. Kerry-Anne ventured to a local shopping mall this afternoon. Apparently it seems as though the afternoon of Christmas Eve is the best time to shop for bargains. Toys and anything Christmas-related was reportedly marked down up to 50%. Let's see if I'm able to remember this mental note to leave Christmas shopping until Christmas Eve next year. :D
