Table Mountain

We made the journey from wine country to Capetown this morning. The fog was there again and there was some concern for Table Mountain but the weather cooperated and we had a great journey to the top and some marvellous views. 

The journey there was a sobering trip as you passed by the townships and the homes that were pretty make shift. We have certainly learned that equality is all around and the number of people living in poverty is huge. One needs to remember that when we complain about how tough everything is at home!




Table Mountain - words and pictures do not do it justice. The ride up on cable car is fast and scenic. The view from the top is breath taking. The low cloud added a special mysterious look to the multiple sights for pictures.



Lions Head












Next stop was Camps Bay.  The road down to the beach went past a lot of very big, expensive homes many of which are foreign owned and empty for a good portion of the year.  From the beach there is a great view of the 12 apostles of Table Mountain.
