After a few days in Johannesburg, we flew down to Cape Town. Our hotel was right on the beach and we could see the famous Table Mountain from the beach. We learned from our time in Johannesburg. For Cape Town, we got a GPS to help us get around instead of using maps. We can all attest that the GPS is well worth it.
Cape Town is known for being really windy, so we had to plan things very strategically. If there was wind, we could not go to Robben Island or up Table Mountain, but thankfully, we were able to do both. We took a cable car up to the top of Table Mountain.

Looking straight out you can see Robben Island from the top of Table Mountain |

And cell phones do work on Table Mountain ... I was talking to Pastor Paul as he was driving to the airport to go to Mexico |

Here are some pictures from other excursions we took while in Cape Town.
