Possibly the most beautiful city on earth....

Cape Town, South Africa. My grandparents moved there and we are going there for a week to help them settle. Normally I'd be irratated, but I've just arrived and it is AMAZING. They have a postmark view, beautiful beaches and then, there is the mountain. Table Mountain. Its AMAZING. Its even being voted a wonder of the world.

Anyway, here are 3 pics I took, I brought my camera and my laptop(obviously) with.

Table Moutain, taken from our car on Wednesday night~

Well if you wanted honesty, that's all you had to say. I never want to let you down or have you go, it's better off this way.

Jaw-droppingly beautiful. I have the sudden urge to paint that with watercolors...

Think it has to do with it being a british colony until the early 1900's.

But anyway, back to the topic... The most beautiful city I've been to has been Portland, Oregon. How about the rest of you?

Table Moutain is in front of the beach. You can go to the Waterfront or you can go to beach. Cape Town is built next to the ocean.

Re: Possibly the most beautiful city on earth....

Someone knows how to take photos. Really nice 2nd one, of the ocean and that mountain (Table?).

Honestly, looks like a fun + beautiful place.
