Table Mountain and Cape of Good Hope
Back in civilization and ready to enjoy the sights of Cape Town. We were fortunate to have just missed a rare snowfall in Cape Town. When we arrived the skies cleared up, temperatures comfortable (at least by Montreal standards) and moderate to no wind.
For our first day we scheduled a half-day tour that included Table Mountain. Cape Town …
Sunset over Sea Point Promenade!
Day 7 – evening
Since last evening was way too cloudy for me to see any signs of a proper sunset at Sea Point Promenade, I was more than willing to walk back there this early evening and see what the skies had to offer me.
After all, it had rained mostly all day today but it appeared as if the grey clouds had once again …
Kirstenbosch Botanical Gardens!
Day 7 – late afternoon
After leaving Simon's Town, we arrived at the well-known Kirstenbosch Botanital Gardens a good forty-five minutes later.
The weather was damp and humid from all that rain that we had today and unfortunately, the sky was once again completely covered with greyish clouds. Groannnn!

Simon's Town - Watch out for those penguins!
Day 7 – afternoon
Now that we were leaving Cape Point – Cape Peninsula National Park, the greyish clouds were slowly and gradually disappearing making way for a lovely blue sky with beautiful white clouds. Great!
Don't you just hate it when this happens and wonder why it couldn’t have been any sooner but …
Hiking Cape Point's scenic trails!
Day 7 – early afternoon

TravelPod Member ReviewsVictoria & Alfred Hotel Cape Town
Comfortable, clean, safe and friendly, courteous service - we couldn't be happier with our experience at the Victoria & Alfred Hotel in Cape Town.
The location was superb - with so much going on around the wharf we didn't need to walk far from the hotel to find restaurants or things to do. A huge shopping complex with a wide variety of shops - including pharmacies and a grocery store - also made our stay easier.

My six days/5 nights stay at the V&A hotel has been nothing but excellent. From my time of arrival to departure day, I have been extremely pleased with their services, excellent food and smiling faces. They were always ready to give me a helping hand in whatever I was doing. As for the room, it was elegantly furnished and I had a fantastic view. It is places like these that make you want to come back over and over again! Thank you very much V&A Hotel for your excellent hospitality!
