View of coastline south of Cape Town (Camps Bay)

Here's a nice shot of Camps Bay (a Cape Town suburb and beachtown). The peaks along the right side of this photo are known as the 12 Apostles. Where they end, Table Mountain begins. The round peak directly ahead is called Lion's Head. The gap between Table Mountain and Lion's Head is called Kloof Nek, and directly over it lies the heart of Cape Town. (the picture of George and Rob below gives you an idea of what the city looks like on the other side from atop Table Mountain).

    I helped to put The Wooden Shoe in place. Hans Roukema was the original owner and I have the recipe for all the wonderful sauces..made enough of it for the restaurant. This was way back in 1961/62 and a good time was always had at TWS.

    Those fish and chips in Hout Bay are good, aren't they. I enjoyed your pictures of South Africa.

    Strandloper is tacky. Seafood over-cooked, bony,dry. Paella grey and awful. The bread superb, the half crayfish lovely, singer & Hostess great. Try the Prawn Shack north of Durban to see how rustic seafood on the beach should be done.
