Myburgh's Ravine

Account by Jo:

There is a photo taken by Russel of Graeme doing a leaping shot on Table Mountain 11 years ago that I absolutely love! Seeing as though G and R are both in Cape Town at the moment, we decided to try to find the rock on the hike from Myburgh's Waterfall Ravine to Suikerbossie. We started our (much more strenuous than I anticipated) hike from Houtbay, all the way up the Ravine, over the mountain to the 12 Apostles path and descended via Llandudno Ravine (think sheer exposure) to Suikerbossie. I am scratched from burnt shrubs, bruised from 2 falls but I made it to the rock for a half attempt at a jump (knee was too sore to go any higher). Will have to give it another bash in a year or so!!!

Heather joined us for the first 10 minutes.

Visiting Noordhoek and Chapman's Peak

A lovely outing with Jo. We got some delicious picnic goodies, then did some leaping on Noordhoek Beach.  Then a gorgeous drive over Chapman's Peak to a picnic spot with breathtaking views.  And then, to our delight, we discovered that Russell and his mum had had the same idea, so we joined them for a nice chat.  All in all, a great day out.
