Devil's Peak by jamibann

Devil's Peak

Whilst the kids did their own thing yesterday, John and I climbed Devil's Peak. We didn't set out quite early enough, and suffered from the heat on the way down. It was like an oven with the heat radiating back up from the ground. And it's not really summer here, yet! However, we made it back down and that beer at lunchtime when we got home was just the best.

This is taken looking over towards Lion's Head with the bottom of Table Mountain in view on the left of the photo. We're heading back to Table Mountain today, as Mhairi hasn't been up yet. Doing a different route this time though - up by Platteklipp Gorge.
What a view!! Love that tree!

What a great capture of this lovely view! It was very hot yesterday, we had 35C and I was almost dying here, I cannot handle the heat anymore.

I hope the weather clears up and you have a wonderful hike today. Platteklip gorge must be quite lovely :-)

Loving the blues. Is Mhairi continuing with the ship or is her time finished now? Enjoy anyway.

@sarah19 No that's her finished and I think she's happy to be. Almost 3 months away from her job and life in Oslo. I think she's ready for a spot of normality although she'll miss the people she bonded with on those first two legs of the race. We'll all still be following Qingdao progress though - although perhaps not on an hourly basis any more!

You're brave!

@jamibann good to hear. What an amazing experience she will have had. Hope the Qingdao crew have safe onward voyage.
