At the end of August we headed for South Africa where Hubby had a week-long conference in Cape Town. I was lucky enough to tag along on what was my first visit to Africa.

Cape Town is dominated by Table Mountain. I’ve seen lots of images of the mountain and the city, but it wasn’t until I got there that I realised that the mountain was right in the middle of the city.

At just over 1,000 metres in height, it’s like having the Blue Mountains popping out of your backyard.

It dominated the city-scape and made for a very scenic backdrop.
