About this audio guide
This guide to Kalk Bay in Cape Town stops at one white chapel on Main Road, built in 1876, and at Simon Cooper, a maritime lawyer who made a wager on it with a promise about Champagne. You'll hear who joined him, how a building meant for sermons was rearranged so an audience could sit on three sides, and where the dinner guests went between courses. Best heard standing across the road, facing the chapel with the bay behind you.
