One tourist spot that Cape Town is best known for is Table Mountain, a flat topped mountain overlooking the entire city. Tourists would have to ride a cable car in order to get to the top, however they would always stop the cable car operation if it's too foggy.
We all had our fingers crossed, and thank god we were lucky because the cable cars were fully operational! Yay!
My excitement was short lived because as soon as we reached the mountain and the door opened, I felt a blast of freezing cold air. Brrrr. Hahaha I was wearing a summer dress, sandals and mom's leather coat (my life saver).
I looked so stupid. I asked the guide what the temperature was, and he told me it was 9 degrees. Ha-Ha. After this trip, I learned never to leave the country without checking the weather forecast.
Oh dear Sun, please stay and keep me warm.
We spotted a cafe on top of the mountain and decided to get a hot cup of coffee inside, as well as a little snack to keep our stomachs full. We still had a long day ahead!
You won't believe how good it felt to get inside a heated room with a hot cup of coffee and the smell of warm, freshly baked bread after nearly freezing outside.
But then it was time to go! Next stop, the tour of Stellenbosch and the Winelands!
