We awoke Friday and planned to hike up Table mountain. However, a peek out our door revealed the “tablecloth,” a cloud that forms with a southeast wind and covers the mountain top.
We called an audible and decided to hike Lions Head instead. We could see Table mountain and the tablecloth through most of the ascent. The trail winds around Lions Head like a spiral staircase affording great views of the city from every angle.
A couple from the top. You can see Robben Island in the first.
We headed to the V & A Waterfront in the afternoon and checked out the aquarium. The tablecloth never let up, so we made the right call hiking Lions Head instead. Leena really enjoyed getting close to the clown fish.
