Silvermine

This looks like a top-of-the-world-and-far-away-from-humans picture, doesn't it? The beauty of it is that while that is true, you are standing on the mountains of the Cape Peninsula, surrounded by a city and municipalities.

Marijke took me on a walk here last year, and it was the first time I'd seen these views, even after having lived in Cape Town for twelve years and having returned every year for another twelve. Since then I've walked it about three times, and it is one of my new favourite places.
