Part 2

At least the title fits in with the last two, I’ll have to get creative again tomorrow.

We left Robert and Molly and their fantastic hospitality this morning and headed out to the airport for our flight to Cape Town, as this was part of the main ticket we just happened to be sitting up the sharp end again!

The flight was only about 2 hours but they managed a drinks service and a hot meal service with time to spare, can’t see Air Canada matching that.

We landed in Cape Town and Lyn’s bag was #7 off the belt, her priority sticker worked, mine didn’t…. 15 worrying minutes later my case finally made an appearance.

Next stop was the car rental, initially we weren’t going to bother with a car but the hotel shuttle for both of us to and from the hotel was the same price as renting a car for the duration, no contest really, especially as there is a free parking under the hotel. As it turns out our car was brand new with only 48Kms on the clock.

Once we had settled in and the temperature had dropped a bit we went out for a walk to scout the local area for restaurants and of course a geocache!

We have booked a trip to Robbens Island for the next Tuesday. If the haze clears we may go up Table Mountain again, but if the visibility remains poor we may not bother as we have done it before in good weather.

At the moment Cape Town is in the midst of a very severe drought, the worst in over 100 years so there are many restrictions in place.
