This Saturday morning I was in Cape Town and decided to start the day properly... We started at the Lion's Head parking lot and took the single track towards Signal Hill. At Signal Hill we stopped for a breath while admiring Green Point stadium and then headed back towards Lion's Head. We were unfortunately pressed for time, so we only went half way up Lion's Head. The views were spectacular... the photographs tell the full story!
