The World Descends on South Africa

Today I ventured to the top of Cape Town’s iconic Table Monutain.

If you’re unfamiliar with it, Table Mountain is one of the most distinctive landmarks anywhere in the world. Flanked by two tradititonal peaks, it sports a broad, flat top that makes its name obvious. When clouds roll over it, the locals refer to the phenomenon as the Table Cloth.

Naturally, Table Mountain is a tourist mecca, the centrepiece of a national park that can be accessed by car, foot, or – best of all – cable car. Once up top, there are hundreds of square kilometers to explore, each nook and cranny different from the others.
