Good Bye Cape Town

We spent our last day in Cape Town going to the top of Table Mountain, pictured behind me here:

We waited all week for the weather to clear up, and it was finally clear enough to go to the top. The views were spectacular. We could see almost all the way to Cape Point, where we had been a few days before, and the oceans are beautiful and vast. It's amazing to see the cargo ships way off in the distance looking like little dots. After seeing this part of the ocean, it makes sense as to why these are such dangerous waters. It's so cool to feel like you're on the edge of a world, like you're so tiny. God really is everywhere. What a testament. Here's some pics of the view we had:

Our last few hours were spent relaxing and trying to gear up for the grueling 24 hr. flight ahead. We went back to the harbor for some ice cream and lunch, and watched the ships come in and out.


Once we got on that plane, we talked non-stop about how much we missed P. It was a great vacation without him, but we missed him more than he'll ever know. This was the best part of coming home!
