Cape Town/Table Mountain, South Africa

It's our first day in Cape Town so we were up bright and early to grab some breakfast downstairs at the Derwent House, this morning it was french toast and bacon with really good maple syrup, yumm.

After breakfast we headed down to Kloof street to pick up some bandaids for Kelly from a chemist, it was such a beautiful day, sunny, warm and blue skies, that we wandered around Kloop street for a while finally ending up in an amazing Wellness store that was huge and full of some good stuff, including Wasabi chips, that we ended up with a bagfull of goodies necessary for our survival on the adventure. After that it was back to Derwent House to pick up our packs, grab a taxi and head for Table Mountain. Table Mountain dominates the Cape Town landscape and our hotel is very close to it in fact our room and balcony looks out onto it.
