Fun Photo Friday — Cape Town, South Africa Favorites 4

This is the fourth of five Fun Photo Fridays. What would normally be the sixth will in fact be a Fun Food Friday featuring a delightful and very affordable restaurant on the Victoria & Alfred (V&A) Waterfront, as well as a brief mention of a place called Mama Africa which offers up true African fare, including wild game, but at a much less affordable price. Until then, here are today’s Fun Photo Friday Cape Town favorites:

Where Do You Go for Mediocre Wines? Whine Country, of Course!

Cape Town — City Sightseeing Tour 2

City Sightseeing Blue Route toward Hout Bay

Still showing you City Sightseeing’s Blue Route, which initially heads south along the mountains before turning west toward Hout Bay (stop 24). After driving through Hout Bay and passing by the Hout Bay Harbour Marina, the Blue Route turns north where, at Camps Bay (stop 8), it merges with the Red Route. To help you get oriented, I repeat the route map below. All our jaunts began at stop 5, which was nearest to our hotel. Stop 5 is on Long Street near Shortmarket Street.

From Camps Bay northward you’ll pass between pounding surf and beaches to your left and tall mountains to your right, as seen in this photo gallery/slide show:
