Cape Town sights

Cape Point - where the Atlantic and Indian oceans meet. This is the view from the old lighthouse at Cape Point. The line of convergence is clear in this photo - with the Indian current on the left and the Atlantic current on the right.

Facing up the Peninsula towards the north, the land separates the Indian Ocean on the right from the Atlantic Ocean on the left.

The day I visited Table Mountain there was quite a bit of cloud present. Two people are preparing to abseil down the mountain from the top - crazy!!

A thick layer of cloud below where I am standing on the top of the mountain.

Sedimentary rock over 450million years old - the stuff of Table Mountain.
