Cape Town burst into life this weekend as the sun came out and temperatures hit 30 degrees. Summer is well on its way as Cape Town gets ready to welcome International visitors. Peak season in Cape Town runs from November until March when the Mother City really comes into its own. There can be few better cities in the World when the sun comes out. Saturday was Heritage Day so most South Africans wrestled for the tongs and celebrated with a traditional braai or BBQ.
It all began with sunset cocktails at the the Bascule Bar in the Cape Grace Hotel followed by the best lamb pizza in town at the Woodlands Eatery. With the World Cup starting to take shape, Saturday kicked off with bacon sarnies in front of the New Zealand v France match to fuel the afternoon hike up Lion’s Head where we set up this time lapse and enjoyed a couple of cold beers as the sun delved into the Atlantic.
An authentic Thai massage at En Masse made for a rather unique start to Sunday – an absolute must for anyone living in Cape Town to experience. Then it was time to hit the beaches of Clifton and Camps Bay before taking a sunset cruise on the Peroni yacht from the V&A Waterfront. R200 will get you 90 mins on their slick catamaran with a couple of glasses of bubbly thrown in for good measure!
Cheers to an excellent weekend and the start of Summer!
