Cape Town, you surprised me

The reason that I went to the south before going home is the Table Mountain. Then I realised that this city is not only offering the gorgeous mountain, the surroundings, the beaches and the Waterfront. So on my last day, I spent at Waterfront of Cape Town.

Around 10.30, the taxi arrived and brought me to Clock tower at Waterfront. It was quite a different environment over there. From here we could see the beautiful Table Mountain. I walked around to see some shops and food hall where I got bubble tea, Vietnamese summer roll and naan bread with palak paner, I was really surprised and didn't expect this at all.

I took some pictures around with the colorful rhinos, which are everywhere, Nobel prize square, clock tower, the harbor, table bay. Then it was time to fly over Cape Town by helicopter. It was a beautiful day to fly and I enjoyed the view of the city, its famous mountain and the Chapman's peak.

Then I enjoyed malls at Waterfront, Clock tower mall and Victoria Wharf mall, to a book shop, bag shop, whatever to kill the time. But it was not boring and you could find everything here. I was just waiting for the boat trip at 4 pm, the trip around Table bay to see the view from the water and to find some animals. I could not risk to miss my mountain view from different ways... I was on it, I saw it from the city, from the air and now from the water.

It was a great day before my flight, as my flight would not go till 30 ant after midnight, so I took a dip in the swimming pool then showered and planned to sleep, but I couldn’t sleep at all. I ate my half naan bread with palak paner and packed. I took a taxi at 21.30 to the airport. I flu back with KLM at 10A, so no business class. I could sleep although not very comfortable as in business class, the lady besides me always hit my right side during her sleep and the guy behind me has too long legs to hit the back of my chair. However, I thought I slept about 6 hours, then I watched a British movie, A Bump Along The Way. It is about a lady 44 years old with 16 years old daughter and she could get pregnant again without plan and after a whole history of not able to have baby anymore. So she kept the baby and the baby boy is named Alfi. Then we got something to eat from KLM, as our breakfast… took the train and taxi with Michel and I was at home around 2 pm. It was a nice trip!
