Wednesday, Oct 8th, Cape Town, South Africa

 

Today was a day of driving.  Not like most other drives, where miles of uninspiring dirt roads took us across desert and dying trees.  No, this drive was a coastal and mountain drive - to the gorgeous scenery which surrounds the city of Cape Town.  To see the 6.5 million inhabitants of the metropolitan area around Cape Town.  

We did see animals, and one in particular which we hadn't seen before (Ostrich).  And we made it to the southern most point (at least that's what the sign said) on the African continent.  





And we reached the Cape of Good Hope, one of the most photographed pieces of land.  We passed on waiting in line for an estimated 3.5 hours to ride the cable car up to the top of Table Mountain.  Instead, we derove up to Signal Mountain to see if any hang Gliders were taking advantage of the heavy winds.  None found, but plenty of tourists were finding just one more magical view.
