And so, the Ginger Jetsetter finds herself in Cape Town. Not an unfamiliar spot - having spent 4 years studying there, but always open to new adventures and delights! The first stop - Rhodes Mem. Built in remembrance of Cecil John Rhodes, who contributed greatly to the formation of the sub continent, we find Rhodes Mem on the northern flank of Table Mountain at the base of Devil's Peak.
This national landmark offers stunning panormaic views of industrial Cape Town, out over the airport, Cape Flats, and on a clear day, the Helderberg and Hottentots Holland Mountain range. Aswell as the restaurant, there are fairly easy walks all starting at Rhodes mem, which take you along the contour path towards Kirstenbosch Gardens, lasting roughly 3 hours.
A must stop is the Rhodes Memorial restaurant, neatly tucked away behind the monument. Delicious food, great prices, and a superb view to compliment your meal! A tad weather dependant - so phone first, and definitely book to avoid disappointment: http://www.rhodesmemorial.co.za/
