The hike up the iconic Table Mountain was tough (tougher for me than Melanie), but the views of the city made it worth it.
Robben Island, where Nelson Mandela spent most of his 27 years of imprisonment, was a very moving experience, and reinforced what an incredible man he was - to emerge from prison able to make peace with those who imprisoned him, rather than to seek revenge.
Mandela's cell - 2x3 meters
A great way to end our time in Cape Town. A fantastic city that we most definitely will come back to again.
Very jealous- I've always wanted to see Mandela's cell, must have been an amazing experience! Mom you're looking beautiful as always, and Dad keep the grizzly beard comin'! I like it!
