The easiest and definitely the most boring way to climb Table Mountain
Platteklip footpath.
It zigzags slowly up through the cut in the front of Table Mountain

Rock Kestrel

While walking along a road that runs along a contour halfway up Table Mountain we came across this beauty.

#CapeTown #TableMountain

I'm thinking of the #seasonal lights in #SouthAfrica. #LawleyStreet lights in #Pretoria, #TableMountain lights seen from #Milnerton, the tree at the #Waterfront (they have one this year, don't they?), #HoutBay fireworks at #NewYear.

I'm sounding sentimental. But what else is #Christmas for, if not for an a man to get misty eyes at his memories?

Anyone got photos?

Fire on Table Mountain

A fire broke out on the front slopes of Table mountain.

Fortunately the South Easter gale had subsided and they could bring the helicopters in.

The helicopters circled picking up water from a local reservoir
