Ice skating in Cape Town

Team Lion cubs came second

Mother's Day was this year spent in Cape Town to attend South African Figure Skating Championships. Team Lion Cubs did very well and received silver for their best skate ever!

We had a lovely four days in Cape Town with practices, the actual competition and some sightseeing. On Mother's day a group of mums and daughters took the local Metro rail to Simon's Town, where we had fish and chips at the jetty before heading back to the official opening draw. It was quite an adventure to use public transport. This is not something we can do in Johannesburg, unfortunately. 

One day S and I also drove to Table view beach for a fish and seafood lunch. The view was stunning!

Metro rail was not too bad!
