Table Mountain

The view from the waterfront

Oh my god.... don't look down!

I was surprised that at the top there were flowers everywhere


Looking over the docks with the sea mist slowly receding


Looking down on the Lion's Head and Signal Hill

1086m (3563ft).... and I really don't like heights. But this is Cape Town's signature feature - so up I went. Now, the cable car goes up very steeply but not only does it rise but it revolves while doing so.... how perverse is that! It's like some kind of challenge - how many people can we make sick before we get to the top?

But the views from the top are awe-inspiring.

Rogermay great set! I have climbed the Kilimanjaro twice during my school days (19,340ft), and that was the first time to see the snow before I moved to England!

lennonf Glad you enjoyed my home town. Only been up the cable way once, prefer to walk/ climb up.
The proper flowers are yet to come.
Lucky you missed all the weather, it is really pouring with rain tonight again
