The City Between Mountains and Sea
Cape Town — the heart of South Africa
Thinking back at the time I spent in Cape Town I don’t remember much of the city itself. I remember mountains. I remember beaches. I remember lots of wind. I remember endless roads along the coastline. I remember passing an ostrich on the ocean road and tasting salt in the air.
That’s what I think of when someone mentions the capital of South Africa.
I’ve visited the city on the southern point of Africa twice. From the second visit, I lost all the pictures. Somewhere along copying them from the camera onto my tablet, then onto a USB-Stick and later onto the hard drive they got lost. The folder never made it onto the hard drive.
What I remember most from my second visit is that the whole cape was in full bloom. It was spring in South Africa and the mountains were covered in mostly yellow flowers.
I guess that would be a reason to go back there. To take new photographs and save them this time. To make new memories. To visit new places and those I’ve liked the most previously.
