Merry Beautiful Capetown Christmas!
May the world be filled with love for this one day.
We got out of the house (hostel) early this morning and tried our first stab at the mini bus. We made it about five miles for 40cents and then he kicked us out and sent us to an expensive taxi, there goes that idea. We made it to Table Mountain and bypassed the cable car to hike up some gorge. And what a gorge it was. We hiked STRAIGHT UP boulders for three hours. It was hard! But eventually I made it to the top and the view was 360 degrees of awe. We hung out, opened Christmas cardds and then made our way to V&A Waterfront for a delicious seafood Christmas dinner..... We sat beneath the mountain and watched the sunset. Afterwards we gave our leftovers to a very grateful mom and hungry 2 year old girl. Amanda offered her crackers to the pair and as he handed them, the little girl's eyes lit up and mouth opened like she had just been handed the most incredible gift of her life. That is what Christmas is all about... crackers. Talked to my loved ones tonight. Merry Christmas. -
