EXPLORING CAPE TOWN - KALK BAY
Kalk Bay is built around a small fishing village on the False Bay coast, but has expanded to be mostly established on the slopes of the mountain slopes above the harbour. The "village" offers the perfect escape from the busy Cape Town city. With its calm spirit and authentic people, this is the true charm of Cape Town's southern suburbs. Need more information? Here's the blog post:

Cape Town winters, while providing some awesomely sunny, wind free days, are often a time for indoor activities. A popular spot for young and old alike is the 2 Oceans Aquarium.

Oceans cover 70% of the Earth's surface and hold 97% of the planet's water. The oceans feed us, regulate our climate, absorb approximately one-third of the carbon dioxide we produce, and provide up to 70% of the oxygen we breathe.

The Two Oceans Aquarium was designed using low-tech and energy-efficient systems, and they are constantly finding new ways to reduce consumption and use more renewable energy. Given that our animal life support systems have to run 24/7, 365 days a year, the main energy consumers are the pumps, which pull water from the harbour, then drive it through the filtration process, and ultimately through and between exhibits.

The aquarium has recently been able to install solar panels to reduce reliance on Eskom and fossil fuels. And the drive to being more renewable energy dependant is ongoing. This is a worthwhile operation that deserves your support. And it's a wonderful way to spend a rainy day as well. Here's the video:

At the foot of Signal Hill, on the fringe of the city, Bo-Kaap was formerly known as "The Malay Quarter". It's a vibrant, mostly Muslim neighbourhood, with some excellent family owned restaurants and spice shops. The first and oldest mosque in South Africa, the Auwal Masjid Mosque, stands proudly as a testament to the rich cultural heritage of this diverse community. It's well worth a visit. Here's the video:

Exploring Cape Town: Bo- Kaap
The origins of the area known as "Bo Kaap" date back to the 1760s when numerous ‘huurhuisjes’ (rental houses) were built and leased to slaves. While on lease, all the houses had to be white, so when this rule was eventually lifted, and the slaves were allowed to buy the properties, the owners painted all the houses bright colours as an expression of their freedom.

ROAD TRIPPING WITH VINEYARD: CAPE TOWN TO CAPE POINT
This easy day trip takes you from the Signal Hill viewpoint, down into the city where you can spend a while wandering amongst the colourful houses of historic Bo Kaap, where you might decide to enjoy an authentic Cape Malay meal.

From there you can head across the peninsula and descend into busy, vibrant Camps Bay, with its abundance of restaurants and pavement stalls. While there, a must visit is one of Cape Town's most popular beaches, although only the brave will brave the cold water.

The road continues south, along a spectacular coastal drive, through the village of Hout Bay before the famous Chapman's Peak Drive, surely one of the most spectacular coastal routes in the world.

Rugged rocks and sheer cliffs towering more than 200 metres above the sea and cutting deep into the ocean will greet you in the Cape Point which falls within the southern section of Table Mountain National park. There's a restaurant and other tourist facilities, as well as a funicular which whisks the less energetic to the old lighthouse looking out over the bay. Perfect weather is the exception to the rule, there is often extreme winds and ocean fog. Which is why the original lighthouse was later relocated closer to sea level, the old one was often obscured to sailors because of the thick fog.

Cape Point is NOT the most southerly point in Africa, that's a few hundred kilometres east at Cape Agulhas, but it IS the most south westerly tip of the African continent, and it's usually considered the meeting place of the cold Agulhas and warm Indian Ocean currents.
