Thoughts about Cape Town

The next few posts will be pics of South Africa, with some accompanying musings.


This is the view from outside the first place we stayed. Cape Town clings to the side of fantastic moutains, the most famous of which is Table Mountain. It's the most climbed mountain in the world apparently.




We stayed in Bo Kapp, which is very picturesque, but a bit edgy. These are the famous Bo Kaap painted houses. It is a Muslim area. The oldest mosque in Cape Town (possibly in South Africa?) is here - 1834 from memory. Sometime around then.
