Old man rivers passed me by...

So for Vday I decided to hike up Table Mountain with a few folks mostly Germans. WTF was I thinking. I think I was a bit ambitious for my first hike in 15 years. As I was walking up, an old man passed me up, I'll refer to him as Gramps. I wish I was kidding. We were resting, but still. Then later on up the mountain, I passed Gramps again. He was on my tail the whole time. At one point, he said, you are doing a good job. Being 30, I think I was closer to his age or that's what it felt like anyways. I was so slow going up, that's what I get for hanging out with youngens again. It was the most strenuous thing I have done in a LONG time. Well worth it though! Once again amazing views. And I was very proud of myself for hiking up Table Mountain! Table mountain is the mountain in the background of pics of Cape Town. There are so many places to hike here. (Cody and Shelly you two definitely should visit CT).


Happy Vday everyone! Most of us from the hostel are going to a love sucks party tonight - my kind of party!
