Cape Town

We returned from South Africa on Sunday, but it took some time for us the conquer the laundry mountain and sort through the bazillion photos we snapped during the trip.

Final conclusion on our South Africa trip: 
Stop whatever you are doing now and purchase a plane ticket to South Africa.  You will thank me later.  We loved every minute in South Africa and are already wanting to return.

We spend the first part of our trip in Cape Town.

Our first stop was to Table Mountain.  The top of the mountain is flat and gives a great view of the city.  

There are cable cars which run to the top of the mountain, but Jonathon and I got antsy waiting in the line and decided to hike.  We should have investigated first, because we were blind sighted by the steep incline.

After 60 minutes on mother nature's stairmaster, we found these lovely people at the top and enjoyed some amazing views.






(Note: It really wasn't that cold.  It was just windy and we got pretty sweaty during our stair adventure.  Okay, maybe we are slight wusses.)

Hydration was in order after all that exercise.  Wine tasting?  Yes please.



The view from our flat didn't hurt either.  It never got old looking out the window and seeing this:





More South Africa adventures to come.
