We spent a few days at the Cat and Moose hostel in Long St. Met up with Kyle's (Shacks house mate) mates Angus and Richard who took us out for a Friday night on the town, which ended up, as all good nights out should, in a gay bar at 5am.
Next day took the Cable car up Table Mountain for an amazing view of the city situated on the freezing cold atlantic ocean. Ran into a couple of Aussie's that we had met in Jo'Burg, who were planning on renting a car and doing the garden route (sexually) so we got on board, with plans to leave on the Tuesday morning.
During our five days staying in Long street, every morning we heard of someone from the hostel being mugged by a group of kids/teenagers with knifes, the night before. Luckily we had no such trouble, though we had adopted walking down the middle of the road and talking our chances with the traffic than the knife wielding locals.
