V is for Victoria Basin

Cape Town learned from the San Fransisco Waterfront, and created a wonderful mixed-use working harbour. The Victoria Basin has a marina, a major shopping complex (V&A Waterfront), jetties for passenger liners and a host of outdoor restaurants. In San Fransisco you'll eat fresh crab with sourdough bread. Here you'll savour the local crayfish, and wash it down with our famous wines. It's a popular destination for tourists and locals alike.

Update: I've just been told by my cousin who really knows about these things that the precident for this development was the Baltimore Waterfront. How nice - I've learned something new for today!
Can't wait!!

Very picturesque. I am really enjoying your alphabet series about your area of the world...It'd make a pretty neat photobook when you're done.
