Road trip - Cape Point.

As we still has the car until 12pm on Monday we decided to set out on an ambitious day of sightseeing.

Following a 6am wake up call we piled into the car (which thankfully had not been broken into over night) and headed due South to Cape Point to watch the sun rise. Cape Point is the most south westerly point of Africa where the Indian and Atlantic Ocean are said to meet.


Unfortunately the funicular which takes you to the actual point did not open until 9.30am (2 hours after we arrived) and we were on a tight schedule. We, however, immensely enjoyed the scenic drive down the coast and the amazing road trip back via Chapman's Peak - a windy coastal road around the edge of a mountain range worthy of the early wake up call.
