We've arrived in Cape Town

We FINALLY got to Cape Town last night. The flight from New York to Johannesburg made flights we've taken from LA to Sydney or LA to Hong Kong seem like "puddle jumpers." The overall flight time was 17 hours AND then we had a 3.5 hour layover before a two hour flight to Cape Town.

Today we took a half day tour of Cape Town. It was disappointing that the weather prevented us going to the top of Table Mountain. We'll try again tomorrow when the weather is supposed to improve.

Cape Town is very compact. We're staying at the waterfront which has been built up with lots of great shops, restaurants, and hotels. Going to sample seafood and Cape Malay cuisine tonight.
