Lion's Head


We did an awesome hike up to the top of Lion's Head in Cape Town this Sunday.

We hiked up for the sunset over the Atlantic Ocean, overlooking Camps Bay and the famous 12 Apostles.

After sun down we scooted over to the other side of Lion's Head for the Moon Rise. A gorgeous Big Orange Full Moon rose up over the Northern Suburbs lighting up the city bowl.

It was incredible! Unfortunately my point-and-shoot just wouldn't come to the party, so no pic's I'm afraid. But I can say that it was better than you could imagine it to be. 

We hiked down at night with the moon to light the way on one side and our handy (heady?) headlamps on the other side!

I have blogged the FULL STORY with some additional pictures here:
