We had a VERY early start, dropped off the house keys with Neil's mother-in-law and drove out to Malmesbury which took an hour whilst praying the whole way that Garth's passport would be ready! When we got there it was a stark difference to Saturday and was completely empty and slightly scary. A policeman came in and walked straight up to me and was like 'jfeiwojfeijwfeio' and I was like 'sorry I'm English' - I was a bit scared that he was going to arrest me or s...

The day Murray won Wimbledon!!! We decided we would visit the wineries, see Table View and do all the things we hadn't done yet. But Garth was exhausted and I'd got a deep ear infection, so we went shipping at the waterfront. It was mega overcast so couldn't even see where Table Mountain was :( but we shopped for presents and enjoyed a nice wrap and coffee for lunch. We headed back round Chapman's Peak to avoid too much pressure change on my ear and chilled at ...

Early start. Lots to do. We drove straight back to cape town and flounder the car place where, I have to say, they were excellent! (surprise!) and within 20 minutes had us in a new car and off!

So the next few hours were rather cold and dehydrated... We queued for 1 hour to get the cable car up. The carriages have a rotating floor so t...

We were woken up by a pneumatic drill above our heads..... We went to The Cape of Good Hope. We spent 5 hours driving around the park. In the car park the very silly Afrikans lady next to us opened her door and let the wind smash it into our car. There was no dent/scratch but the woman was a silly one indeed and seemed very offended by us! We got the train up to the high point and it was sooooo windy that people were getting blown over - literally. It's the stro...
