The Beach Atop Table Mountain. Hmm...




This morning was amazeballs. We woke up earlyish and decided to go on what I was told was a "little hike" up the mountain here in CT.  Oh how they love their mountain here. And now, I have to say, so do I. After 3 hours of radonk trails and, according to my Nike+ Fuel Band, 11,000 steps up rocks and a feisty 38-degree heat spell, we hit the top of one of the 12 Apostles and what do I see? A flippen secret beach of awesomeness. Choosing to ignore the No Swimming signs, we frolicked in the water and had a grand old time thwarting the law and cooling down in a lake 800m up a mountain, after which we had coffee and chocolate croissants on the rocks. As one does at a mountain-top beach. In Cape Town. In December. Flippen love it.
