In the morning, after a leisurely breakfast of homemade South African rusks, we headed out to the Victoria and Albert Waterfront. We took our time getting there because leaving any earlier means battling the Cape Town rush hours. The traffic is terrible because the amount of roads they can build are restricted by Table Mountain. Eventually we arrived and explored the shopping, restaurants and the ferry to Robben Island. The ticket office building has an exhibition all about Nelson Mandela, who was imprisoned in Robben Island.
Our afternoon was spent in the famous university town of Stellenbosch. I don't know if it is famous for housing all those students but it is famous for South African wine. We visited a number of wineries, all in beautiful settings, before heading back to the coast for evening.
