Cape town is nothing like most coastal cities you'll visit in Africa. I was 16 when I visited, and at the time I used to watch a show on MTV called Laguna beach, and all I could think of was Laguna only better. The houses facing the beaches definitely reminded me of the show, but it's diversity, creativity, colour, sounds and taste was nothing I had ever seen or even imagined.
At night the city is very lively, my friends and I went for a movie and were shocked at how busy it was. The internet cafes, restaurants and a lot of shops were open till late. There's many of Cape Dutch architecture, narrow, cobble stone streets and the strongly Islamic ambiance of the Bo-Kaap enhance the cosmopolitan ambiance of the city. I love penguins and Capetown became the first place I ever saw them, they were too cute.
My first time on a aerial cable car was when we were going to the table mountain. At that moment I was in awe and I even forgot about my fear of heights, it was nothing like I'd seen before. When we got to the table mountain I love the little shops there and bought myself lip balm and a few other souvenirs. The view was out of this world, we were literally seeing all of Capetown.
