Fairest Cape Part 2

After the most amazing past days it was time to head to Cape Town again as Kika my aunt was on her way from Pretoria for a well deserved holiday after a lot of hard work! And with yet another family member arriving things could just get better!

Ciel and I left for the Cape and then suddenly we took a detour, what a surprise! I was treated to a lovely bit of Cape hospitality. We drove past some of the most amazing little holiday towns, names like Kleinmond, Betty's Bay, Pringle Bay and Rooiels! After passing Rooiels on our way to Gordon's Bay we suddenly found ourself in a smoke cloud as the mountains was on fire. This thick blanket of smoke was an amazing light filter and the world around us turned the most beautiful greens and golds one can imagine!

The smoke was so bad that one could not even see the other side of False Bay!

We got out just in time as the police in Gordon's Bay started closing down the road!!!

That evening just before we drove to the airport I quickly took this picture of the sunset with all the smoke!

We had a very late night catching up and having an amazing time. The next day we got up looking forward to the prospects of a lovely tour of the Cape Peninsula! The fire was put out during the night and by the time we where underway all the smoke had cleared and it was a beautiful day!
