Table Mountain
Vantage point from Lion's Head peak. After our exotic, fantastic trip through Egypt, we were excited to be able to navigate our way around a country on our own again. We scored immediately with an excellent pick for a hostel called The Sunflower Stop, in the heart of Cape Town. Everybody there treated us so well and gave us a ton of great ideas to explore this incredible diverse region. They also showed us where the nearest mall was so we could buy clothes and toiletries when none of our luggage made the trip from Cairo with us! Sweet!
We loved hiking around Table Mountain (not up it, we took the cable-car...lazy Americans!). The view from up top is one of the best ever! On Halloween, we joined the rest of the Sunflower for a traditional braai - much like a bbq in the states, but the accent is better. The night got a little interesting as pictures will attest, as we were all "over-served" by the bartender, Gaz. Luckily, KT and I snuck off before the entire group went out to Long Street @ 1:30am. Everybody looked a little scary the next morning.
After only a few days, we were off exploring the Garden

Atop Table Mountain. Route, in a rent-a-car, driving on the left side again (Missy and Lisa, we needed you here).
