CAMPS BAY . . is a popular . . Beach Town
. . just a few minutes around the northwestern corner from our Green Point lodging
. . Many Eateries . . Unhurried breezy setting
. . between . . Table Mountain . . and the . . Atlantic coast

Part of the Beach at . . Camps Bay . . Not too crowded

Our "MyCiti" BUS card . . gets us here and back . . for just a few cents . ."
Remember "K" and "Tomo" . . from our NAMIBIA group ? In Cape Town . . we meet up again . . at 'Savoy Cabbage' Restaurant.
We are all going to sample . . some animal meat . . we had seen on Safari !
Being Japanese . . they are focused on 'RAW' . . while we are tiptoeing into this meal
. . deciding against raw ZEBRA ( that actually has a stripey look to it . .
or is it my imagination ? ) . . one 'taste' is enough
. . and when learning that WARTHOG (cooked) tastes much like 'Pork'
. . we order the one thing we thought for sure we would not want to eat.
"K" and "Tomo" choose many dishes and relish every RAW bite !!
By the time this photo is snapped . . we are sharing . . 'Desserts'.
Staying in Green Point . . makes it handy to stop by the . . V & A Waterfront
on the way "home" several times . . sometimes for dinner
. . other times just for a
colorful 'slice - of - life' stroll . . watching 'local leisure'.
Every direction you turn is . . photo worthy !
It's not a Disneyland place . . but every age group enjoys being here . . often !
Lots of fun things . . for kiddos
Always some group or individual entertaining . .
These Marimba players attract a big crowd.
We finally make it to . . THE AFRICA CAFE . .
that serves samples of all the things on this menu.
Recipes from various countries on the Continent . . a "Communal FEAST"
There is One Price . . One Meal . . includes 'everything'.
Then you can have MORE of your 'favorites' . . if you can squeeze any more in !!
This is . . ONE . . of . . MANY . . Courses !
"I don't know about . . you . . but I'm 'stuffed' !!
Pre - dinner 'Face - Painting' . . gets people . . 'in - the - mood' !
WAIT STAFF . . winds up with some 'Continental' . Song . Dance . Rhythm !
By now we have rented a little Hyundai
. . and just south of Cape Town at Haut Bay . . we come into . .
Chapman's Peak Drive
. . with Views across to Western Cape Beach Towns . .
Fortunately there are a . . number of Pull - Offs . . and a couple Parking areas
with Tables . . for impromptu Picnics
. . The 2 - Lane 2 - Direction Route is full of
"take - your - eyes - off - the - road" . . . Panoramas !
White Sandy Beaches . Grass - Roofed Resorts . Water Sports
Cameras don't know when to stop clicking . .
No wonder this part of the Globe gets . . Rave Photographic Reviews !
Under the Rocky Ledge . . ( Driving on the LEFT SIDE of the road ) . .
Setting out along . . the Continent's southernmost belly . . known as . .
" The GARDEN ROUTE " !
( Take out your Map ) . .
Rusty and Wrinkles will . . ' Need your Back Seat Reminders . . to Stay LEFT !'
We're headed to the . .
"Down - Under" . . Southern End . . of the . . "African" Continent
