Thursday, 4th February.
Only one day to see as much as possible. We set of to the
HOHO bus stop; purchased a 2 day pass and a cable car ticket each. This allowed
us unlimited use of the bus, a Harbour Cruise and a Sunset Tour.
Table Top Mountain and a cable Car ride to the top are on
most every ones list of things to do. The line up was long but not as bad as
when we came down 2 hours later. The views were magnificent, definitely as must
do. For the more youthful; you could walk up to the top, not for us, but the
fit do it easily in a couple of hours

Once down we hopped back on the bus and completed the Red
Route and saw the coastline. There are many beaches, but not all suitable for
swimming. The bus loop finished at the waterfront, so we did the half hour
Harbour Cruise before returning to the ship for a feed and a nap.
5.30 pm was the meeting time for the Sunset Tour so we
walked back to the Waterfront and stood in line. The bus departed at 6pm and we
had a wait of about an hour once we had reached the top of Signal Hill before
the sun set in the Atlantic Ocean.
Friday, 5th February.
I had booked a taxi for 8 am and at 7.45am I got a call from
the driver that he was outside, so by 8am we were diving out of the port area
toward the airport. The flight was less than 2 hours and Tony had a view of the
coastline for most of the trip.
