Last day in Cape Town

(Elke) After Francesco's intermezzo on one of his favorite topics, wine, I'm here to give a quick summary on the day. The day started cloudy again, so we were afraid that our main attraction of the day, Tafelberg or Table Mountain, would have been canceled. But luckily, the clouds decided to disappear and we could go up the mountain. The Table Mountain gives the specific view on Cape Town and you can see it from any spot in the town. A visit up there is worth it, just to get a great view on the city. It also gives the chance to go for a good walk in nature, because the mountain is part of a natural park.

After this, we went around for a small city center tour. We saw the very much Dutch style looking Caste of the Cape of Good Hope. Also, a visit to the South African museum gave us some insight in the different tribes that are present in this country.
Now, it is time to make our bags (again) as we are leaving Cape Town tomorrow. As of tomorrow, we will be driving ourselves on the wrong side of the road. More news about that in our later items.
(Francesco) Well ... I will be driving ... sigh sigh. And Elke assumes we can get Internet ... let's hope!
