Back to South Africa for Number 2 of my "29 of the Best", this time to Cape Town and the surrounding area. Table Mountain really is as spectacular as they say. We didn't hike it because of time constraints (and fitness!) but the funicular was just as cool. I remember dining in the revolving restaurant at the top of the Ritz hotel (not the Ritz) and having an antelope feast - Impala, Kudu and Namibian Gemsbok. We also dined and shopped to our heart's content at V&A Waterfront, and stroked baby cheetahs at the Cheetah Outreach conservation centre. Of course, no trip is complete without visiting the ostrichs, seals and penguins - and we made sure to squeeze in a spot of wine tasting at Stellenbosch too!

AuthorBlogging is an amazing concept so here I am giving it a whirl. You'll get words. You'll get pics. Sometimes a vid or two. You'll get tongue in cheek, the odd humble opinion and an honest insight into my travels and writing life. Maybe even a few gems along the way. I'll be musing on home turf as I see more and more of the UK and sharing my experiences further afield on holidays and adventurous trips across the globe. Archives
