A walk in the Green Point Urban Park on February 14

I finally managed to get here while the sun was shining

and no other people (work men ) around and no sea mist !

 

Inspiring planting ?

Note the lighting

Different lighting here

There is going to be lots of water here

A trip to Hout Bay to see fur seals takes half an hour from Green Point,Cape Town

July 29 has been a grey cool day, nothing of note to report about the stadium other then that they are at still at work at night, so I would like to show you a short scenic trip I took a few days ago If you do this for the first time you will never forget a minute of this route

From Green Point take the road passed Camps Bay and Llandudno through the "Suikerbossie Pass" and half an hour later you arrive in Hout Bay This is the beautiful protected Hout Bay harbour where I took a boat to Duiker island to see the colony of fur seals after I had a calamari lunch on the terrace of Chapmans Peak Hotel with view of the harbour

There are hundreds of seals and birds on the island, I wouldn’t like to swim in these waters apart from being icy, seals are one of the delicacies on the Great White’s menu. You can see the spectacular Chapmans Peak drive on the left, which is at the moment closed because of rock fall but I could see they are busy repairing it

A close up of a fur seal I took in the V&A waterfront harbour here I can certainly still remember how awestruck I was the first time I saw the scenery on this route I had a fantastic day again with walks around the harbour and in the countryside
