I did not have much time to organize any outing this week-end as regards to the fact that I am leaving soon back to France and that I have to write my internship report before te end of my stay.
So, I spent almost the entire saturday before my laptop though the weather was beautiful. Well, the good side is that I have already written a great part of my report and am therefore reassured about that. Still, Sunday wasn't to be a mere replication of my deadly Saturday and I decided to fetch a cab direction the furthest and niccest beach I have been so far in the Cape. I went to Cliffton Beach, a very nice (but posh) neighborhood located in a sandwich position between the "Twelve Apostles" (the name of the mountain chain which lays behind the neighborhood and which consists exactly of 12 peaks!) and the Atlantic Ocean. Definitely a perfect setting for both mountain aficionados and beach lovers.
While being busy to finish my "Surprised by Joy" book of C.S.Lewis, in the white sand, I also managed to get burnt by the sun on my feet!!
Further, the movie "Married Life" with Pierce Brosnan is definitely worth if you like romantical intricacies in the setting of the 50s.
