Worst storm of the season is finally gone

Our last day in Cape Town and the weather is fantastic. I opened our blinds to see the bright and sunny sky with not a cloud in the sky. So that is what Table Mountain is supposed to look like. We immediately call over to Robben Island and get tickets for the 11:00 boat to the island. We first enjoy a large breakfast and then split up for the morning. JB and Lindsey head back up to Signal Hill to get the pictures they were hoping for and to return the rental car. Amy and I walk around our ho...

Screwed by Ginja

After hearing from JB and Lindsey how fantastic the breakfast was at the Majeka House, Amy and I made sure that we woke up in time to enjoy it today. Got a wake up call for 8:00 in order to change and make it down to breakfast by 9:00. The spread was very extensive. There was a cold buffet with fruits, breads, cheeses, and fish. I loaded up on the first trip. Then, while we were eating, a waiter came around to ask what sort of hot breakfast we wanted. Since I developed a food hangover from di...

Let me see

We slept in today since there was no plan due to the inclement weather. The 2 big attractions in Cape Town are Robben Island and going to the top of Table Mountain. Robben Island is their version of Alcatraz. It is an island off the coast of Cape Town that includes, among other things, a prison that housed Nelson Mandela and other political prisoners in the 70s, 80s, and 90s. Table Mountain is the flat mountain behind Cape Town which produces excellent views of the city. The plan was to do th...

I put the fun in funicular

They say Cape Town has 4 seasons all in one day. The morning is their spring where it starts off cloudy and rainy. Then around 11 the clouds lift and it is summer for the day. Then around sundown it starts to cool down a bit for autumn. Finally all night long is a cold winter weather. So as expected, we looked out the window and it was raining. We decided to just skip the attempt to go to Robben Island today and instead go on the Cape Point Drive. We spoke to another American on Table Mountai...

Arrival

On arrival in Johannesburg, due to our late departure from DC we were just able to make our connecting flight, since after clearing immigration and customs we had to walk from the international to the domestic terminal.  If we'd checked our bags, I'm not sure if we would have made it.  The flight to Cape Town was uneventful, and arrived pretty much on time.  We were met by a driver (there is nothing better than arriving in a strange country after traveling for over 24 hours and seeing someone...

Today we awoke at the Table Bay Hotel, which is in the Victoria & Alfred Waterfront, and were greeted with a beautiful view of Table Mountain from our hotel room window. We had a great buffet breakfast- yummy things like passionfruit and guava juice! Prior to our arrival Cape Town had several days of rain, so since the weather was clear went right to Table Mountain. *Interesting side note: there were a lot of problems while we were there with people who hiked the mountain being mugged! We...

First Day in Africa

After a full day of flying, we finally made it to Africa. We arrived to the hotel at 11:30pm last night, and Doug, Lindsay and Ashley headed to the bar. What started out as one glass of wine, turned into a party with four wild Scottish men on their way to Angola. When our tab disappeared and ended up on their corporate expense account (oil executives), we finally realized why the gas prices were so high. They were a ton of fun, but waking up after a few hours of sleep was rough. Thankfully th...

"Cape Town the Awesome" by, Hunter

(Day Two) In Cape Town, we woke up and it was rainy. Then, we drove in the rain to a winery. There was lots of cheese, CD ate the goat cheese and I ate cow cheese. Ashley just likes wine. I got board so I went outside and chased peacocks in the rain. Then we got in the car, and Paw Paw fell asleep again. We drove around a little town and got lunch. I had water because I didn't like my food. Next, we went to a place where they have a lot of cheetahs that can't go back to the wild. And we looke...

Beautiful Cape

... over the good old days. Had a huge dinner where everyone stood up in turn and contributed to the tales down 'memory lane'. Haven't laughed so much in a long time. Some good photos. Partied until the sun came up and even the mass of teenage children (that we've all produced!) enjoyed their own celebratory reunion - say no more! Thanks Nick and Pet for a very memorable weekend.

... out. We watched for a while then found an amazing seafood restaurant... built out on a jetty with windows opening on the ocean, the roar of the waves, the mist and lighthouse beacon combined with amazing fish and wine making a perfect late afternoon and evening. On Saturday both Beca and Emily and some other friends from Lusaka were running in the Two Ocean's Marathon. The marathon was actually an Ultra Marathon and a Half Marathon, the girls ...

... we really had arrived for lunch. She then explained what all of the food was laid out on tables for us near the entrance to the dining room, and before taking our drink orders. We went up by tables and enjoyed one of the greatest feasts I've ever had. Mom's Christmas dinner still wins, but this comes pretty darn close. We had savory rice, regular rice, maize and potato casserole, pumpkin, sweet potato, ostrich stroganoff, spicy beef, fried chicken, meatballs ...
