Only one more day is left until I'll have absolved the first school week here in Cape Town. I really like my class, it is a mixture of diverse cultures. The six other classmates are coming from Gabon, Angola, Spain, Brazil and Germany. Generally, school is very different compared to the one in Switzerland. I've class from 9:00 in the morning to 12:40, what creates many opportunities to visit the city, having great discussions with the new friends and doing a lot of sports. As an example, yesterday, we went on the table mountain...but let's start at the beginning of the story:
After school, I had lunch together with Florian in a good restaurant. Afterwards, we decided to go for a drink to Waterfront, the most touristic area here in cape town. While we were enjoying our Mojito, suddenly another friend wrote that we could go up to the Table Mountain - by cable car. As Florian has already been there, we decided that we have to walk up, otherwise there wouldn't be enough action for us. So we started our journey, which was quiet exhausting due to the extreme steepness:
Unfortunately, it got very foggy on the top of the mountain and we had to fight against a cold wind falling down from the top. But in the end we succeeded and arrived on the top...and got this view:
Hence, we were looking for another reward, so we decided to take an Irish Coffee. But right at the moment when we wanted to enter the restaurant, the sky cleared up and we had a beautiful view for a short moment. Thanks to our fast reaction, feeling like Japanese tourists, I could take a shot:
So I can conclude this post with a final idiom: we got our cake and ate it!
