Driving home through the scenic Cape

So we were driving home from Fish Hoek last Saturday, and as we were driving up Ou Kaapse Weg, I looked back and saw the sun reflecting off the sea. It was SO beautiful! So I took a few photos (but of course taking them at 80km/h and through a dirty back window doesn't help to do the scene justice...)
And then I thought, "Hey, lets take you all on a scenic drive through the Peninsula..." So I started just snapping photos here and there. I really am grateful to live in such a beautiful part of the world!

These were all as we drove over the mountain on Ou Kaaps
Coming down the other side, and seeing False Bay and Muizenberg ahead.
The back of Table Mountain, still on Ou Kaapse Weg.
We don't always drive this way, but I thought we'd take the extra scenic route, so this is driving through Constantia.
We drove right next to these vineyards. If you're on the other side of the fence the view of the mountains over the vineyard would be even more beautiful.
This tree really amused me... True evidence that this really is Cape Town...
Devils Peak, from the Kirstenbosch turn-off.
This isn't a great photo... But just over 3 weeks till I'm here!

So that's our drive home!
