Cape Town
Before departing Africa altogether I spent 10 relaxing days in the lovely city of Cape Town (South Africa). Aside from the disproportionately high number of poor blacks, it is about as un-African as it can get. Nevertheless it was worth the stopover. I found plenty to do in the city and surrounding area without making my way further up the coast as originally planned. Here are a few of the highlights…
