FEEDBACK: Saturday 24th May: East Fort, Hout Bay


After listening to the torrential rain, rolling thunder and watching the sky flash with lightening all night, most TMT-ers decided to pull the duvet back up over their heads and sleep in this morning. Only the most intrepid amongst us (or the nuttiest!) met at Hout Bay beach this morning at 7am.
 
Believe it or not, Hout Bay was bone dry, 18C and not a breath of wind. We had a long discussion about the likelihood of low clouds higher up on the mountain and the type of lightening prevalent in Cape Town (compared to Joburg lightening) and finally decided to divert our run to Constantia Nek and along the contour path beyond Skeleton Gorge.
 

The main group are pictured (all three of us!) and Faye and Mary-Anne were the two unstoppable walkers. Gregg put in an appearance at the car park just to make sure I wasn't there alone in the dark! What a gentleman!
