Flew into Cape Town last Friday. When we landed it felt like we were back in the UK - cold! A bit different from the humidity of Asia. The weather was good for us though, sunny and bright. Kim's friend Mo came through from Jo'berg to spend the weekend with us. It was great seeing him again, it's been 3 years since we met up in Goa when he was travelling around India. Went for drinks at a Scottish Ale House on Friday night. On Saturday we took the cable car to the top of Table Mountain (some people walk it up... crazy) It's sooo high! The floor of the cable car rotates as you rise so you get 360 degree views, like something out of a James Bond movie! Fab views from the top. We went out for seafood on Saturday night and I tried the Mozambique lobster, it was lovely. The guys kept singing 'Under the Sea' from the Little Mermaid... not good! On Sunday we tried to go to Robben Island but tickets for the ferry across were sold out so had a look round the exhibition instead then went to the Craft Market. Afterwards we went to Clifton beach for ice cream and Camps Bay for drinks. Said goodbye to Mo Mo on Sunday and chilled out for the evening - literally our hostel rooms are freezing! On Monday we went on Safari to Fairy Glen Reserve. It was fab seeing all the animals, saw four out of the 'Big Five' - Lions, Rhino, Elephants, Buffalo... no Cheetahs that day!
