Cape TownCape TownCape Town

Nice town, feels still European!!
After working for a year, I was normally used to travel the next.....but life changes!!
After making twice a big trip for about 9 months., I was wondering how it would be to travel just for 5 weeks!

Together with my girfriend we decided to take a trip to southern Africa, and our starting point was Cape Town.
Cape Town, lovely place, but we didn't get the feeling of Africa there yet.
Just three days, but 3 great days there!
On our first day we walked around the seaside and town...and when the time got by the weather improved so we decided to climb the Table Mountain in the Afternoon!!
Nice hike, but we started a bit late....in the end we had to run to the Cable car to catch te last lift down because it got dark to early for us.
The nicest views we saw while running and while taking a deep breath when we made it to the lift again!!
Next day we continued with our touristy plan, taking a boat to Robben Island! Nice trip quite interesting and with an overload of information of the past whe arrived back in Town

We got a nice VW golf..to drive down south to Cape Point and Cape of good hope!
Early in the moring we enjoyed the sunrise there and we saw our first wildlife...some springboks, ostridge an baboons and even pinguins!!
Then we drove along the coast to Hermanus, where we were lucky to see some Whales.
Next day we made us ready for the real Africa......Whe had a flight to Victoria Falls, Zimbabwe
