Table mountain and Kirstenbosch..Day 3

We made an early start and caught an Uber taxi up to the cable car station at Table mountain. We arrived early enough to have breakfast on the mountain  before exploring this iconic mountain with its dramatic  views over Capetown  and the surrounding area. 











We the made our way over to Kirstenbosch  botanical gardens,  our first stop  was at the Mayo  restaurant  for lunch. After we had eaten, Mandy “let it slip" that Rob had a landmark  birthday approaching. The staff then brought out several sets of drums and a energetic dancer  who dragged Rob onto the dance floor, luckily Rob has natural  rhythm  ????.......so he did not let the side down ! Sadly, Mandy filmed the whole  sorry incident.











We then spent some time exploring  this  wonderful area  of outstanding  natural beauty of the gardens and its bird life.












We the headed back to the V&A waterfront in  Capetown,  our first port of call was the Alfredo restaurant,  which is  an old favourite of ours where traditional  groups of musicians  put on a great display. 

 We returned to our guest house and sat on the balcony and  watched the sunset over the Atlantic ocean with 2 new friends, Germans , Rob and Gabrielle
