A fantastic day in Cape Town!

Dear readers!
I hope you are not freezing in the north, because here in Cape Town in South Africa it is more than 20 degrees. Today my family and I have been in Cape Town. Cape Town is the legislative capital of South Africa and is the second most populous city in the country. In Cape Town it lives 3.1 million people and the city is the last stop before the Antartic. It is many tourists here, and someone says that it is Africa's most popular destination.

We have seen the Table Mountain which is a mountain who is tall and very flat. It was a fantastic attraction, and we used the cableway to get to the top of the mountain. From the cable car we could see another famous place, Robben Island, which you can see in the background of the picture

Cape Town was the largest city in South Aafrica until they found gold and diamonds near Johannesburg. Cape Town was originally a city for ships from The Netherlands on their journeys to East-Africa and Asia. We were also shopping at "Victoria and Alfred Waterfront". It is situated between the Table Mountain and the Robben Island. There were a lot of stores, and we were shopping for many hours.

I think Cape Town is the world's greatest city, and I really want to come back and visit this city again!
