Although I heard a foghorn during the night, the morning is a clear and beautiful day. So although I only had one planned activity today, Scootours, I was able to also do the 2 activities that I had not been able to do because of the weather.
So first off was the Scootour riding oversized scooters down 2 different mountain tracks, I was great fun and possibly more dangerous than I though it would be, the scooters were quite difficult to control and I found that the best position to ride was to bend my knees and lean back to take weight of the front wheel, but still an experience I thoroughly enjoyed., the operators were really good and went out of their way to drive me to my next activity, paragliding.
Again the tour operators were first notch, fitting me in early, and instructing on what to and not to do. Another great experience, floating over the mountain, then the city buildings, then sea & shore to the landing site, and again accommodating me by dropping me off at the location of the free bus up to cable mountain, which I had missed out on yesterday because of the weather.
There was no queue for the cable car which took me up to the top of table mountain over 1km high and as we went up the cable car spins slowly to give everyone an all round view. The views from the tp were spectacular, so lucky to get a fine day after 2 poor days where even if I went up wouldn’t have seen the views.
Enough rambling for tonight as I have to repack for the ride tomorrow.
