• Cape Town day 2

    Nice bright day and I went on a trip to Cape Hope. Fantastic scenic drive along Chapman's Peak. The coach can only go along it one way as it is close to the cliff. The schedule had to be changed because the scheduled power outages meant we couldn't do the funicular railway until later. So first stop Boulder's Bay and the African penguins.
    Met Millie and Nick by chance and saw their Airbnb which was just next to the beach. We had an enormous lunch ; fish and squid rice and veg followed by sponge and custard.
