Wow everything they wrote and said about South Africa is absolutely true. Seriously breath taking views of the mountain, sea, animals (I put up some of these gorgeous pics in my album). I absolutely love being so up close to the animals in their 'natural' habitat. The food is absolutely delicious. Melting pot of different kinds of culinary tastes too.

Cape Town is a beautiful city which, in my opinion, strikes a close to perfect balance between city life and nature. As a city it is a happening place filled with events and a great diversity of culture. The great thing about Cape Town is that it is not so big that you feel lost in it. The City is surrounded by great get away opportunities in any which direction you choose to go. I think the most spectacular thing about Cape Town is the fact that it actually also surrounds the Cape Peninsula Nature Reserve (World Herritage Site), Starting from Table Mountain, in the centre of it all, there are a mutitude of scenic routes, by car and by foot, which one can explore on one of those beautifull summer days as experienced only in the Mother City.

Cape Town is a beautiful place with lots of things to do, if you know your way around. The drive from Everstdal to Kraaifontein will take you through some gorgeous landscapes, as well as a view of table mountain. It's a little chillier than I'm used to, being from warm Durban but it was manageable. The people are great and tend to switch from English to Afrikaans really quickly and I have to admit... I may have even started to think in Afrikaans for a few minutes...which was quite hilarious once i realised what i was doing...lol. I'm definitely looking forward to going back and seeing more.

Welcome to the only place in South Africa where you can climb a mountain, surf the monster waves of Sunset, Catch a cable car, walk thou forests of trees, see endless landscaped gardens, see the desert wild flowers, see the whales in the bay, shop till you drop, have endless choice of top restaurants, walk miles of empty beaches, enjoy different cultures, see live plays/comedy acts go shark-cage diving and meet so many wonderful beautiful people .... "welcome to Cape Town", the only place to live in the world!!!!

Has some of the warmest people in the world and you'll never get lost in Cape Town. There is always a helping hand round each corner. of course we have our dingy places but it is the place to be especially in summer.
