We then headed off towards the national park for Cape Point. We ate some lunch before our trek up to the lighthouse at the top of the mountain. The views were breathtaking and we got lots of great photographs. After we wandered down it was time for a quick look round the gift shop before jumping in the bus. We drove down to the water to get photographs against the backdrop of the waves.
Then we went along to the Cape of Good Hope for another photo opportunity. After eventually getting a few group photos taken we sat on the rocks and enjoyed the sun for a while. It was lovely to sit and take in the spectacular views around about. It was so peaceful and everyone was so content.
It was then back in the bus to head back to Cape Town via Chapman's Pass and Camps Bay. As we crawled higher and higher up the mountains the views become even more breathtaking. Camps Bay was a really nice place with lovely houses overlooking the water. It would be amazing to live there!
We headed to the Waterfront for some dinner. We ended up going to San Marco Italian restaurant and people tucked in to pasta, pizzas, steaks, etc. Everyone enjoyed their meals against the backdrop of the harbour. Then we went across to the watch the remainder of the Argentina v Australia game. Some people sneaked off to get ice cream with Miss Roslender! I'm jealous I missed out on what I was told was very tasty ice cream.
Overall, this has been one of many highlights on the trip along with being in the school, the GCU, braai at Mario and Michelle's and Robben Island. Cannot believe we only have one full day left. Looking forward to the farewell assembly at Welcome tomorrow. I think it will be very emotional.
