The Sunset Moonrise Tradition

One thing I really like about Cape Town is how outdoorsy it is. Hiking remains a pretty bougie activity, but it is still great. A tradition is that on the three or so nights of the full moon, people climb the Lion's Head to watch the sun set and full moon rise, drink some wine at the top, and climb down by moonlight. And flashlight. This, objectively, is AWESOME. I can only imagine during the summer.

You can see the crowd ascending the mountain.
With the sun setting over the Atlantic.

Group shot, taken by one of the astronomers that lug up the telescopes every month.
LR- David, Cary, Adam, Josh- Adam's friend and Cary's former boss, Sarah- Josh's fiance, Calleigh-intern from UVA, and me.
People were just chilling out all over the rock.
David. The stadium is on the far left.
Cary will be mad at me for posting this.
CAPE TOWN
Supercheesy. We just have too many normal pictures.

I am really proud of myself for this picture. The full moon rising to the left of Table Mountain.
